Full time positions are salaried. Management experience is not necessarily required. I can train the right people, but please understand these positions do not involve playing with cats and board games all day. Yes, you will get to touch a vast array fuzzy cat butts, and yes, you will get to nerd out with other board game lovers about how you played 47 different games last month, but these are very small parts of the job.
The majority of your time will be spent doing things like:
- scooping litter boxes
- cleaning hair off of every conceivable surface every hour of the day
- scooping litter boxes
- sanitizing surfaces constantly
- keeping cats up to date on nail clipping/flea meds/etc.
- scooping litter boxes
- cleaning food and water bowls
- doing a zillion loads of cat blanket laundry
- scooping litter boxes
- going through every board game that is played to make sure all of the parts are still there
- explaining how to play the featured game for the 3000th time this month without puking
- ordering supplies
- restocking supplies
- planning events
- taking pictures and posting on our social media accounts and website
- keeping our website's cat pics and events updated
- slinging coffee and snacks
- replying to a constant barrage of repeated questions without sounding like you're about to pull a machete out of your boot.
- and did I mention you'll be scooping litter boxes?
It will be mentally and physically draining, but the fuzzy murder machines come first. We're in this to make sure the cats are safe and comfortable, find them quality homes, and hopefully do it in a way that helps everyone have fun. So let's save some cats!
