The Feline Foundation on LinkedIn: The employee of the month for April 2024 is Mitali!! (2024)

🎉 Meet our incredible Volunteer of the Month for May 2024, Riddhima! 🎉Riddhima joined us back in June 2022, and her journey with us has been nothing short of amazing. She initially started with day-to-day tasks like cage management, and now Riddhima assists Dr. Karen, Dr. Hariom, and Dr. Rohit in both OPD and OT. 🏥Soon to be a veterinarian, Riddhima helps with client communication, handling cats and dogs on the table, prepping medicines and salines, and preparing vaccination certificates. She also looks after daily monitoring inpatient treatments and assists our doctors during spay/neuter surgeries and major surgeries like dental extractions, amputation, eye extirpation etc. 🐶🐱Last month, she worked especially hard while interning with us. But that's not all! Riddhima also supports our social media team by capturing moments from major surgeries, spay/neuter surgeries, and daily OPD visits. 📸An animal lover at heart, she adores spending time with all the cats and dogs here, especially our beloved Callie and Billi Cooper. 🐾 It's the cutest thing to hear her call them in her baby voice! Outside the clinic, Riddhima loves attending dance workshops and experimenting in the kitchen—her chocolate chip cookies are to die for! 🍪💃We are so happy to make Riddhima our Volunteer of the month for May 2024! ❤️

Today we did a cat population survey with employees volunteering from Marsh McLennan Global Services India Private Limited (MMGS). We surveyed, onfoot, a nearby locality in order to collect data on the community cats living there. We recorded:1) Total number of cats: 672) Number of unsterilised cats: 353) Number of 'vulnerable' cats (kittens/pregnant/ lactating/ injured/ sick/ disabled): 11Such surveys are very important for spay-neuter organisations like ours so we know where our focus is needed most. As there is little to no data on the status of stray animals in Mumbai, establishing a baseline is crucial for the planning of activities. While impact measurement is crucial, it is time- and resource-intensive on field work for NGOs like us. That is why we are grateful to the kind employees from Marsh McLennan who donated their time today in the hot sun to complete our survey.#SpayNeuterSavesLives#csr #animalwelfare #spayneuter #employeeengagement #corporatevolunteering

Meet our Employee of the month for March, Dr. Karen! 🤩Karen Dsilva has been an invaluable member of our team since the beginning, and we deeply appreciate her dedication. Last month was a milestone for TFF, and Dr. Karen played an important role in our success. We achieved our highest number of sterilizations to date, largely due to Dr. Karen's efforts. She not only performed the majority of the surgeries but also assisted Snehal, our sterilization manager, in coordinating the scheduling effectively. 🤗Dr. Karen's energy and commitment are remarkable. Even after her work hours, she remains engaged in additional activities. She helped us a lot in planning the Spay Day 2024 and bringing in doctors to carry out this special event. ✨ Dr. Karen's day starts with kissing Billi Cooper and ends with kissing and hugging Billi Cooper. Their bond is inseparable. We are thankful to her for staying with us for such a long time :) 😇Congratulations Dr. Karen on being the best employee of the month for March 2024! ❤️

Meet our Volunteer of the month for March, Sahil! 🥳✨Sahil has been a dedicated volunteer at TFF for over a year, consistently showing up for his Saturday shifts. Last month was particularly busy due to numerous events and increased number of sterilizations. One can say that he loves carrying out physical tasks at TFF which includes setting up cages in various wards, and maintaining overall cleanliness. Additionally, Sahil enjoys the hands-on activities like cat-catching too. 😻Recently, he has found joy in spending time with the kitties at our facility and taking Callie on walks. Moreover, he makes sure to help us in all the events throughout the year. In our recent event, Spay day 2024 ✂️, Sahil helped us in carrying the cat carriers to the first floor. He helped us a lot in overall activities and we are glad to have him at The Feline Foundation. 🫶#volunteerofthemonth

Volunteer of the month for February 24 is Shanti 🎊Shanti started with us on January 24, but we've known her since long as she adopted two cats from Cat Café Studio. Shanti's been a great help around here, she helps us with daily chores and spends quality time with all the cats in the trauma ward. ❤️🩹🥺Shanti has this lovely habit of chatting with the kitties and doggos, which is just adorable. It's clear she really cares about the animals. She loves feeding them and hanging out with them. Some days, she takes all the trauma ward cats one by one to the let-out room and plays with them. ❤️She's even brought treats from home for the cats and shared them with everyone. Lately, Shanti has been trying to train Callie to stand up, sleep, and sit using treats.😋 Along with all this, Shanti loves taking pictures and videos of kitties doing silly stuff which of course helps a lot in social media management. Thank you for sending gazillion cute photos. 🥹We're excited to have her as a volunteer at TFF and hope to see her around often. Congratulations to Shanti for being The Volunteer of the Month for February 24. ✨#volunteerofthemonth
