Volunteer
The trust is 100% run by volunteers. We need helpers for all sorts of things: fostering cats or kittens (especially during kitten season), rescuing abandoned cats& kittens and caring for colony cats. We are always looking for people to help with fundraising events and other activities, advertising, promotional materials etc.
Fundraise
Supporting our fundraising events or perhaps even do your own fundraising!
Keep an eye on our Facebook page and remember to invite your friends along.
Gift
We welcome donations of quality canned or dried cat food, fleece blankets, pet beds & houses, heating pads, cleaning products, pet crates & carriers, kitty litter & litter trays. These can be dropped off at our Op Shops in New Plymouth or Hawera. Donate goods to our shop for resale - Clothing, bric-a-brac, toys etc.
We only have small shops, so we are unable to take large items.
