Description
I've a farmhouse in Parodi Ligure near Gavi Italy,
I have nearly 70 cats a mix of kittens and adult cats..they live in and around the house, there are barns and outbuildings too.
It's mostly cleaning help required..floors, litter trays, food bowls etc.
There are 2 feed stations in the village.
I am looking for someone who is reliable, can get up 7am, feed the cats at home, go up to the village and feed the others.
Someone who if finds a sick kitten, wouldn't hesitate to bring it home, isolate, warm it syringe feed etc etc..vets are in Gavi.
I am looking for that special person who could do all this one their own as I need to go to UK, mid to late July.
Also help in March, as my daughter is away she normally feeds village cats, now I'm older I need help as I'll have 2 feed stations as well as home to see to.
I feed roughly 140 cats a day..spread out !
I am now looking for more people, during the year to help out.. age is against me I'm slowing down !
In summer cleaning isn't hard, by 11am you'll have finished, the afternoon is free..I feed again in the evening around 6pm/7pm depending on heat of the day.
Someone who recognises fly eggs on wet food !
Someone who doesn't balk at vomit, litter trays..
Is that special person out there ?
I hate cooking by the way, I'm vegetarian
Anyway.. thanks for reading !

Autres infos...
I have wifi. Trains to Milan/ Genova, wherever are reached at a station 20 minutes from here.. I'm happy to give lifts to the station.. There is a bus service to Gavi, our nearest market town, 7 klms away.. I have had people from "Trusted House sitters" stay, but they both tell me its more a working holiday, than just house sitting.. I'm pretty laid back.. just need assistance with the day to day cleaning..
Gavi has a small market each Sunday morning and Novi Ligure a town half an hour away has a fairly large market on a Thursday morning.
The fast train to Genova takes half an hour, a city worth a visit :)
The village of Parodi is in the country, views of vineyards and hills..

I learned new things about cats again even thou I had 4 cats myself years back. Every cat has its own character and they tell you if they want you around or not. The vet she goes to is just great with animals! I found it… read more
To be left "In Charge" for a young person can be daunting, but you managed extremely well.. I'd be happy to recommend you :)
She was really kind, talking was easy from the first moment on. The work is not too much, but of course has to be done. Most of it is cleaning and in winter heating. So day to day routine. Nevertheless you… read more
