gemini cat thanks our volunteers

Cat Chat has been helping to rehome cats for eight years now, and the demand for our Charity's services has grown immensely in that time, and indeed, continues to grow. Many rescues refer to us as their 'Rehoming Life-line'. Our volunteers are a vital part of our operation, and for whose efforts we are incredibly grateful!

On this page we say THANK YOU to all our wonderful volunteers who give their valuable time, expertise and energy to help to make Cat Chat work. Thousands of ex-rescue cats are purring in their new homes thanks to these folks below, serving 'Cat and Country'!

If you are or have been a secretary, and would be willing to give up a few hours each month, then we would like to hear from you! You will need to live in or near Thanet, Kent as that is where meetings are held, on the second Tuesday of each month. You will be required to take accurate notes of the proceedings, and to produce finished minutes to an established format using Word or similar.

LOCAL VOLUNTEERS (South East Kent)
CHARITY TRUSTEE - (1 vacant post - S. E. Kent only):
trustees for cat chat charityRequirements: Animal lover, with some spare time • A connection to the web • A willingness to take on some level of responsibility • Honest, Trustworthy and Reliable • Any relevant or useful skills a bonus!
Time Commitment: The Trustees meet once a month, however you would be expected to take an active role, and to be involved in additional tasks requiring work between times, to the benefit of the Charity.

We currently have one vacant post on our Trustee body. Ideal candidates would have experience in one or more of the following fields; business management, publicity and marketing, trading, I.T., web development, finance, general admin, fundraising, staff management, grant funding, animal welfare, although these are not exclusive requirements - if you feel you have other skills which may help the Charity, we would still love to hear from you. Trusteeship gives an opportunity to actively shape the future of the Charity. Experience in the Charitable sector would be helpful but is not essential. We are a small, friendly committee, and one of us will be happy to have an informal chat if you think you may be interested in joining us. We currently have no-one in the post of Charity Secretary/Minutes Secretary. We would also be pleased to find someone willing to become involved in either Fundraising or Publicity.
If you are an animal lover, have skills which you think would further the Charity's aims, have some spare time, and you live in South East Kent, please email us, including a land line phone number please, and someone will call you for an informal chat: cat chat general email
