[email protected] Newsletter, January 2021 Happy 2021 to everyone from the volunteers at KittyKind. Starting in this issue, we’ll spotlight some of the many volunteers at KittyKind. Did you know that in addition to the care-team volunteers, those who feed and clean the cats, there are many other kinds of volunteers at KittyKind? There are adoption representatives, health- care volunteers, cat socializers, database volunteers. a social media coordinator, photographers, a web designer, foster-care coordinators, volunteers who field phone calls, and the list goes on. You’ll meet all of them. In this issue, we focus on the Monday volunteers. You’ll also get a glimpse, from other inside sources, of what KittyKind’s like on a Monday. Monday’s Care-Team Volunteers Three-hundred and sixty-five days a year, volunteers go to KittyKind in the Petco Store to feed and clean the cats. Morning and evening, they feed, clean, observe, record, and clean, again. They’re the eyes and ears of cat care. From Laura W., Monday a.m. Care Team: “Kitty Kind was one of my first calls after retiring from my full-time job in 2011. As someone who doesn’t have cats at home anymore, I really treasure the time I spend in the Petco shelter. The resiliency and sweetness the cats exhibit is especially inspiring during these dif- ficult times. It’s a joy to be a part of helping these wonderful animals move forward to new and better lives.” (Laura found out about Kit- tyKind from a co-worker who is also still volunteering, and Laura’s daughter also adopted a cat from KittyKind.)
