recovery space
Slope Street Cats is in need of space to use for
pre- and post-surgery recovery during our spay/neuter
feral cat projects.
The area should be securely enclosed and temperature-controlled,
such as a basement, garage, or spare room. Our
projects last approximately two weeks, with two
brief caretaking shifts each day (morning and
evening).
We can provide you with a tax-deductible receipt
for in-kind donation of the "rental" fee (usually
about $150-$200).
Recovery time can be a bit on the odiferous side,
but we clean the cages twice a day and always
do our best to keep the space as tidy as possible.
Through this wonderful, hard-to-find donation,
you would be helping prevent countless litters
of cats from being born out on the streets! You
can donate the space as a one-time event or on
an ongoing basis.

Volunteer
The first—and most importan— step
toward volunteering with Slope Street Cats is
to take the Neighborhood
Cats trap-neuter-return workshop, which provides
you with a basic understanding of TNR necessary
for talking about it to others or working hands-on
with feral cats in traps. We have some volunteers
who put in many hours every week, and others who
help out occasionally with specific projects.
