Office Help
Our office is home to cats who have recently been returned or are waiting to be placed with a foster family. Office Help volunteers assist with feeding, disinfecting, cleaning litter boxes, giving love and attention to the cats in our care, and general light cleaning.
Grant Writing
Grants are a critical source of funding for our rescue work, and we’re always looking for volunteers who love research and writing. Grant writing volunteers help identify funding opportunities, draft and edit grant proposals, and track submission deadlines. No prior grant writing experience is required, just strong writing skills and attention to detail.
Communications & Social Media
Help us spread the word and find homes for our cats and kittens! Communications and Social Media volunteers assist with creating content for our social media channels, drafting newsletters and announcements, and keeping our community engaged. Whether you’re a seasoned content creator or just enthusiastic about cats and storytelling, we’d love your help amplifying our mission.
Adoption Event Coordinators/Volunteers
Volunteers are needed each Saturday or Sunday for 3–4 hours at various locations. Your main duty is helping show our kittens to potential adopters, plus setting up and breaking down the space. It’s a great way to help kitties find homes and meet new people! Commitment levels vary by location, some events ask for a regular weekly volunteer for up to 6 months while others are more flexible.
Condo Crew
Condo kitties need daily care and love! Each crew member is assigned a weekly AM or PM shift to clean condos, refresh litter and water, and spend some quality time with the cats. Shifts take about an hour and are a great option for people who can’t foster but still want hands-on kitten time.
Condo crew members must be 18 years or older. We currently have condos at pet stores in Brea and Buena Park.
Kitten/Cat Transporters
From time to time we need help driving cats or kittens between locations… to and from vet offices, foster homes, adoption events, and spay/neuter appointments. If you have a flexible schedule and a car, this is a great way to help!
Fundraising
Our fundraising volunteers are the engine behind events, campaigns, and community outreach that keep MeoowzResQ running. Whether you have experience in event planning, public relations, or just a passion for helping animals, there’s a place for you on this team. Volunteers help plan and execute fundraising events, support donor communications, and assist with promotional efforts. The team typically meets twice a month.
