Make a Difference Today!

River Cities Humane Society for Cats relies on dedicated volunteers to help us care for the cats and kittens in our shelter.  Whether you have a few hours a week or just want to help occasionally, we need you! Volunteering is a rewarding way to make a direct impact on the lives of homeless cats while supporting our mission to find them loving homes.

Ways You Can Help:

  • Transport Cats to Vet Appointments – Help get cats to and from the vet for spay/neuter surgeries and medical care.
  • Litter Box Cleaning – Keep our shelter clean and comfortable for the cats.
  • Laundry Duty – Wash blankets, bedding, and towels to ensure every cat has a cozy space.
  • Shelter Cleaning – Sweep, mop, and maintain a clean and healthy environment for the cats.
  • Cat Socialization – Spend time with shy or frightened cats to help them feel safe and loved.
  • Adoption Events – Assist at off-site adoption events by handling cats, speaking with potential adopters, and setting up breaking down booths. 
  • Fundraising & Special Events – Help with planning, setting up, or working at events like Tails at Twilight, garage sales, and other fundraisers.

Flexible Scheduling to Fit You

We understand that everyone has different schedules, and we do our best to be flexible with volunteer times. However, some tasks, such as transporting cats to vet appointments, need to be done at specific times. When deciding which volunteer roles are best for you, please ask about any time commitments required. 

Your time and dedication mean the world to us and to the cats in our care. We also want your volunteer experience to be rewarding for you! We will work with you to match your interests and talents with the tasks that bring you the most satisfaction.
