    Descripción

    I am an English, retired language teacher, loving a sociable laid-back life in an French village. However, now disabled, I am no longer able to cope with my small house and garden in south Vendée. I also need someone to look after my 6 feral cats when I am away - only one lives indoors. I have included a photo of my cottage in England because I have to go there sometimes and also need help there, but there are no animals. I can usually only offer one week's volunteering to a single person. However, at times when I need to go away, the stay can be longer. Help is also needed by the cat charity next door, created and run by my sister-in-law, which traps, sterilises and releases feral cats.
    I would welcome help with the cats, housework, gardening, and painting and decorating in return for board, lodging, language tuition and sightseeing. I am used to having people in my house as I have hosted foreign students in the past, and also run a B & B. I cook and eat vegetarian food.

    Would welcome general help with tidying the small garden a few hours a day. Help indoors eg spring cleaning, cooking, painting and decorating. You could have plenty of time off and I can offer language tuition. If you are cat-sitting you will be alone in the house.
