Cat Rescue Volunteer Coordinator

Rags To Riches Cat Rescue is a volunteer-run, federally registered charity with a big mission: to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome forgotten cats and kittens abandoned across southwestern Ontario’s rural communities.

Many of the cats we save have been dumped, abused, or left to fend for themselves in harsh conditions — freezing winters, predator-filled woods, or remote areas where help never comes. With zero government funding and limited resources, our small but dedicated team works around the clock to give these animals what every living being deserves: safety, medical care, love, and a second chance at life.

Every cat in our care is spayed or neutered, fully vetted, and given the individualized attention they need to heal and thrive. We also work tirelessly to combat overpopulation and educate the community about proper cat care and welfare.

In 2025, 257 cats found their forever homes through our rescue! In the first five months of 2026 alone, another 229 cats found their forever homes! This is a true testament to what compassion, resilience, and a caring community can achieve when we come together.

Our rescue directors and volunteers are very busy taking care of cats and assessing adoption applications - we really need someone to help us turn approved volunteer applications into action. We need someone to follow up with these newly approved volunteers and confirm the ways they would like to help the rescue, and to then connect them with the right people so that they can get started. This is a fully virtual position. If you can help us out with this, please fill out our Volunteer Application today! Under the "If you selected Other, please list any other areas where you can help." question, please add "Volunteer Coordinator". Thank you for your interest in helping to save cats' lives!
