The Kenora Cat Shelter is entirely run by volunteers. Our volunteers are a very dedicated and special group of people who donate their time and energy to make a difference in the lives of our cats. We are always in need of volunteers to help out at the shelter working directly with the cats. Shelter shifts involve cleaning out kennels, laundry, dishes, feeding the cats and, of course, giving them some much needed love and attention! Morning shifts are 8am-11am, and evening shifts are 4pm-6pm every single day, 365 days a year. Volunteers must be minimum of 16 years of age to volunteer for in-shelter shifts.
We always need help with our fundraising events! Stay up to date on our facebook page and see where you can help out! Some of our fundraising events are bake sales, BBQs, yard sales, open houses, book sales, and more!
Help us help our feline friends by placing a donation jar at your business. Donation jars are a great way for the public to easily donate to The Kenora Cat Shelter and every little bit of change helps. Just place the jar on your counter near your register. As the jar fills up, bring the change to The Kenora Cat Shelter or a shelter volunteer can regularly stop by to collect the donations. Please contact The Kenora Cat Shelter at 807-468-4648 to arrange for a donation jar to be dropped off at your place of business.
Empty beer and wine bottles are collected year round and turned in for bottle deposit refunds. Our drop off door is open from 8am-5pm at 725 Railway Street in Kenora, Ontario
Have too many bottles and no way to deliver? Give us a call and we can arrange for a pick up!
Having a social, party or wedding? Save all your empties for us!
We’re looking for kind-hearted volunteers to help transport cats to and from their vet visits. Many of our cats rely on a ride to get the care they need, and your help makes a big difference! If you have a reliable car, some free time, and a love for animals, we’d love to have you join our team.
