Victoria, Canada Itty Bitty Kitty Committee RescueCharity Full time

**About us**

Our work environment includes:

- Modern office setting
- Food provided

We are opening Victoria's first low cost mobile spay and neuter clinic. Our clinic will be for cats surgeries only with no overly complex issues. We are hiring a RVT to work with the veterinarian to perform cat sterlizaiton surgeries. Your role will be to help get the cats ready for surgery, keep the clinic on task and efficient for the day and help mentor our unregistered tech. We are looking at working a 4 day work with week/10 hour day to give more work life balance. Enjoy a three day weekend every week A few tasks to note that you must be comfortable performing:
1. We aim to complete all surgeries if a healthy cat is presented. This includes if the cat is pregnant we may will need to complete a late term spay.

2. We will be working with community/feral cats. All feral cats will come in appropriate traps and will be sedated in the trap. However you must be comfortable working with this type of animal.

3. We aim to be a high volume, high quality clinic. As such you need to be efficient as possible with all routine tasks.

4. Once every few months we hope to move the trailer/mobile clinic "onsite" to various local trouble locations and perform a full week of low cost or free surgeries as appropriate. Our travel weeks will include the entire team. These travel weeks will be the exception, not the rule and will most likely travel within 1.5 hours of our stationary location. The majority of the work is stationary.

5. We are operating out of a mobile clinic so you will be working closely with your team mates.

Note: This job description is not intended to be all-inclusive. Employees may perform other related duties as negotiated to meet the ongoing needs of the organization.

If you are interested in making a difference in our cat population crisis and helping us create this clinic please consider applying.
