Seeking people who can stay for 1 to 3 months at a time (or longer) to help clear land for future permaculture projects, do path maintenance, and feed a colony of 15 to 20 cats twice daily. You must love camping, hiking and the outdoors. In winter, you'll sleep in a cozy tiny house, and in summer, you can sleep in a tent in a nearby shady grove if the tiny house gets too hot. NO DOGS, not even nice ones, sorry. My land is a cat sanctuary.

My best friend and I (21) were volunteering for the first time and I can't describe how amazing this experience was. It was challenging going up the ⛰️ daily, but we sincerely enjoyed our time staying there. We loved the 🐈s (miss them so much🥹), Francesca (a friend of Shiva) was showing us around the house, taking us up, explaining everything, making sure we had everything. Thank you so much❤️ For the people after us: road way was easier for us,(summer) sleeping in ⛺ was better, Biliba (bar) cold cocoa was GOOD, house has 2 camping 🚿+cool 📚+camping 🚽, take an electric flyswatter. 🫵❤️

We had a great time in Vis!! We spent three weeks at the shelter resort and we were able to enjoy the beautiful nature. Shiva was a great host, the communication was easy and the workload was extremely fair. Additionally, we had the company of three adorable cats at the shelter that made the experience even better. However, it's important to mention that the path you have to take between the shelter the city can be quite exhausting, especially when you're doing this every day, but in the end it definitely got easier.

Volunteering at the shelter sanctuary was one of the most rewarding experiences of my travels. Shiva was kind dedicated and everyday felt meaningful. The atmosphere is peaceful and i also had plenty of time to explore the area. If you love animals and genuinely want to give your time to a place that truly makes a difference this is for you!

This was an amazing experience being able to connect with nature and experience life in Vis! The island is beautiful and Shiva was a wonderful host, I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who loves being outside and has a special place in their heart for cats :)

What an amazing experience!! I was able to learn so much and grow so much as a person during our month at the shelter home. I would highly recommend this exchange to someone that is very flexible and outdoors and is looking for a paradise filled with love from the cats. Nothing was more fun than walking to feed the cats in the morning and seeing them greet you on the path and ending the day with beautiful sunsets. Even in December I was able to swim so please apply to help the cats and make a huge impact in these cats lives :)
