Colony Support:

If you enjoy working outdoors, you may want to become a colony caretaker. BCC’s Colony Support Team provides daily care (food and fresh water) for approximately 170 community cats living on about 23 industrial and commercial properties throughout Beltsville. Each volunteer feeds one or two days a week at one or two colonies.

• Monitor BCC’s managed colonies for unaltered, sick/injured cats, and young kittens.

• Ensure that adequate shelters are available at each colony site and assisting with the winterization of these shelters in the Fall and cleaning the shelters in the Spring.
