We always need reliable people to help out at our cat shelter in New Westminster. Shelter shifts are normally two hours, 5 shifts per day, 7 days a week, and involve tasks such as feeding, scooping the litter boxes, grooming and playing with the cats, and occasionally administering medications. We do not cage our cats, but the more attention we can provide them with, the happier they will be while in our care. Shelter volunteers get an excellent opportunity to meet our cats firsthand on a regular basis.

The RCHS relies on fund raising because, at this time, we have no government financial support. We have different events throughout the year that need volunteers.

  • Variety Night and Silent Auction: Donations for the Silent Auction are always welcome, and of course buying tickets and coming to the show.
  • Fraserfest Dog Wash: We will need volunteers to set up the booth and to wash dogs.
  • Santa Pictures: We need volunteers to represent the RCHS at pet pictures with Santa, which is held at various locations in New Westminster and Coquitlam.

We need volunteers to help with school programs. If you enjoy working with children, you could:

  1. be involved with developing and maintaining our program;
  2. assist with the presentation of our program;
  3. and / or you could become a presenter yourself.

The RCHS always needs volunteers to answer telephone messages. We have an answering machine that picks up messages during the day. You would return the calls one evening a week and represent the RCHS in answering questions. If you decide that this is a job you would enjoy, we will pair you with a volunteer until you feel comfortable returning the calls by yourself.
