KITTY COTTAGE ADOPTION CENTER
Kitty Cottage is a no-kill shelter for both rescued and surrendered cats. The animals live in a cage-free environment which allows better human interaction. Since opening in 2002, the center has found homes for more than 3,000 cats. Up to forty are waiting for a family at any given time, and all are microchipped and up-to-date on shots.
Kitty Cottage demands primarily on volunteers who work on Monday, Wednesday, or Saturday mornings. Duties include feeding and socializing the cats as well as basic cleaning tasks.
CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF PHILADELPHIA
