We are
looking for compassionate and concerned people who wish to devote some of their
time to the helpless and voiceless animals who so badly need help!
The World
League needs all kinds of volunteers. We need volunteer drivers who are willing
to transport cats and kittens. This usually involves short trips, such as
periodically transporting homeless animals from our office to foster carers or
local vets. Volunteers are reimbursed by the World League for their car use
(cents/km method). In addition to this, we also require volunteers with any
technological expertise to help us manage our website and/or provide some
occasional technical support to the office manager. Other volunteer activities
include distributing posters of homeless animals within the local area, helping
with stalls and fundraising, assisting with cleaning of our office, attending
peaceful rallies, writing letters to local and national papers on animal issues
and feeding colony cats (currently needed in Bankstown, Abbotsford or Lalor
Park).
Providing foster care for animals in need is an important part of our work.
Volunteering as a Foster Carer
The foster care
experience can be tremendously rewarding but at
the same time requires dedication and hard work. Many of our animals have had a
bad start to life and may need a little extra TLC to overcome any shyness and
insecurities they may have developed.
On a day to day basis, carers must be able to provide adequate food, water,
shelter and attention to their animals as well as transport the animal to a vet
in the event of any medical problems. Carers wishing to foster kittens are
required to be at home for at least some of the day as kittens will require more
regular feeding (4-5 times a day) and handling in order to become socialised.
Foster carers often find that they develop a close bond with their animals. We
encourage the foster carer to be active in all aspects of the rehoming process,
as they generally understand the needs of the animal. Foster carers will often
experience a great sense of achievement. They know that their efforts have saved
a life. The animal will live out its life happily with a new, loving family.
By assisting WLPA you will be helping animals and also informing concerned
people.
