**Cat Care Manager**
- Austin Pets Alive (APA) is one of Austin’s most dynamic and beloved nonprofits. The organization leads the No Kill movement nationally and is considered a national thought leader in animal welfare. APA locally rescues, treats, and adopts out 10,000 homeless dogs and cats each year, providing the safety net for Austin’s most at-risk shelter pets, which helps Austin to be a No Kill city, while also assisting other communities in saving homeless animals. The organization is distinguished by the scrappiness of its grassroots and its non-traditional, community-based animal rescue work.
At APA, care professionals are valued as animal champions, advocates, and guardians. Their passion and strong bonds glue the mission itself together. We believe quality care is dependent on quality relationships, because those relationships teach us about the individual animal and inform us of what we can share about them with others, in hopes of them finding a home. APA encourages strong connections not just for the welfare of pets, but for purpose-driven people too.
The Cat Care Manager position oversees the standard, public-facing animal population at APA, focusing primarily on cats at the TLAC campus. The Cat Care Manager also serves as a Manager on Duty (MOD) figure who is the primary point of contact when various needs and questions arise. In collaboration with other care managers, this position ensures animal care at APA is equitable, timely, and integrated for dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens.
