A wonderful volunteering experience on the outskirts of Barcelona ! Spend time learning how to care for lovely cats in a peaceful village. The hosts, Esther and Julio, are warm and welcoming, making the experience both enriching and enjoyable. Also, the bungalow provided is comfortable and well equipped, ensuring a pleasant and relaxing stay. The place is easily accessible by public transport to and from Barcelona, so you don't have to worry about getting around. Whether you're a cat lover or simply looking for a meaningful and peaceful getaway, this experience is truly worth it.

The volunteering experience was simply wonderful. Ester and Julio are two incredible people; it was so lovely to meet them and their adorable kittens. I highly recommend volunteering with them. The house was well equipped with everything you could need, and breakfast was very complete. The town is small but full of nature and very peaceful. Beautiful experience. Thank you very much, Ester and Julio.

My experience at the house was amazing. Esther and Julio are wonderful hosts who make you feel at home, always willing to teach, help, and guide you. Taking care of the kittens is a very lovely part of the daily routine: playing with them, pampering them, and receiving all their affection and lots of purrs is something I enjoyed a lot. And Noa, their dog, is exquisite, playful and very affectionate. I am very grateful for this experience and everything I lived through. I would recommend it 100%! ❤️🐾

Rasca Fustes has been a truly unforgettable experience. 💛 Surrounded by kittens, nature, and a small and beautiful town, we were able to enjoy a few days full of tranquility and very special moments.

Undoubtedly, the best part of the experience was our hosts, Esther and Julio. They are wonderful people, very welcoming, warm and always willing to help us and make us feel at home.

We carry precious memories, a lot of affection for the kittens, and an experience that we would wholeheartedly recommend. Thank you, Esther and Julio, for welcoming us and sharing with us this beautiful place.
