Terms & Conditions

During my volunteering with Ninth Life Cat Rescue (NLCR), I may have access to confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret information belonging to the NLCR, including but not limited to name, address, financial information, donors, fellow volunteers, and foster and adoptive families. I agree to keep all of this information strictly confidential and refrain from using it for my own purposes or from disclosing it to anyone outside of NLCR. I agree that, upon conclusion of my volunteering period, I will immediately return to NLCR all of its property, equipment, and documents, including electronically stored information. I understand unauthorized disclosure of confidential or privileged information is a serious violation of this policy and I will be subject to appropriate discipline, including removal/dismissal. By signing below, I express my understanding and intent to comply with this disclaimer, willingly and voluntarily.

Although every attempt will be made to ensure your safety, animals are by their nature, unpredictable in behaviour. Accordingly, as a volunteer, you agree to the following conditions:

§ I hereby agree to hold NLCR, its Directors, and Volunteers forever harmless for any damage to personal property or any injury whatsoever that I may suffer as a result of my volunteer activities with NLCR. This includes, but is not limited to, bites, scratches, and communicable illnesses or pests contracted from any animal.

§ NLCR recommends that all volunteers have up to date vaccinations. I am aware that as a NLCR volunteer, I am acting as a representative of the organization and agree to act responsibly at all times by maintaining a professional demeanor and protecting the rescued animals from any harm while they are in my possession or care.

§ You must be 18 years or older to volunteer with the cats (some exceptions can be made depending on the situation/volunteer opportunity). Volunteers under 18 years of age require a parental or legal guardian to be in attendance and the guardian must also fill out a volunteer waiver. This waiver applies to any and all events and volunteer opportunities that I attend as a NLCR volunteer.
