Beth's First Volunteer Job

Cattitude

Beth was delighted to begin working at her first volunteer job. It is at Cattitude, the largest cat protection charity in the UK. This ties in nicely with the fact that all of the cats we have had over the years have been rescued. Catitude focuses on lovely women’s clothes; something that Beth certainly knows much about.

She works for the store manager, who is a delightful young woman, about 30 years old, originally from New Zealand, who is enthusiastic, funny, laid back, and quite friendly. Beth has learned the operation of the till, swept the floor, dusted, and assisted in reorganizing some of the store's clothing. She also sorted donated clothing into items that are to be sold in the shop or sent to less expensive cat protection shops or given to the rag man.

Happily, lots of customers came in, some to browse and others to purchase. She love's helping women decide which clothes suit them well, and many of the ladies engaged in conversation with her; something Beth is very good at.
