We are seeking volunteers for the following roles:

Fostering
We rescue all sorts of animals: dogs, cats/kittens even budgies and as we don’t have a physical shelter, all the animals we rescue are taken into either kennels/catteries or the homes of our foster volunteers until a permanent home can be found. We are always looking for more foster homes because the more places we have available, the more animals we can take in and help.
Why Foster?
You'd love an animal but maybe your lifestyle doesn't suit. Fostering is an ideal way of helping an animal in need and gaining valuable first hand experience of owning a pet.
A loving foster home works wonders for any animal who has experienced abandonment and a tough start in life. A loving foster home can allow them to become socialised and develop into a friendly contented animal, while they wait for their new forever home. So if you have a secure premises and a lot of love, then fostering could be for you.
We cover all veterinary costs and supply food and litter. Advice and backup is always on hand.
We are currently looking for people willing to foster in the Fingal region
So if you are based in Swords, Balheary, Ballyboughal, Balbriggan, Garristown, Naul, Skerries, Rush, Lusk, Donabate and Portrane, please get in touch either by phone on 089 461 2537 or click on the button below.
Trapping
One of our main tasks is trapping the wild cat population. Trapping them, means we can get them to a vet for neutering/spaying and the animals are then returned. In this way we reduce the overpopulation of stray cats and promote better health and quality of life for the neutered male and spayed female.
We have the traps, we just need more manpower to get the traps to the areas needed.
We would love to have more volunteers in the Fingal area to help us continue with this vital work.
