™ Meet Tigger

How I Arrived At NHS: I lived in a loving home with my siblings until we were ready to come to NHS to find our very own forever homes. We were very shy and scared when we came in so we went into a foster home to relax and get some more socializing.

Notes from our foster mom: Tigger might be shy at first but once he gets used to you he's a sweet fun little kitten! When he first came to us he wouldn't even come out of his carrier. He now likes to lay in our arms or lap and be scratched from chin to tummy and all around his face and ears.

all with each other while eating. They sit for treats well. They are not housetrained. Sometimes they use the newspaper but need to be contained and they don't mind a kennel or a pen. They have spent a lot of time outdoors and love exploring and being able to run. They come when they are called. They are all very fun and loveable!

Are you interested in getting paid to protect our local lakes and rivers?

The Comfort Lake-Forest Lake Watershed District (CLFLWD) is now accepting applications for watercraft inspectors for the 2023 season (May-October). We are looking for friendly, energetic, passionate people to help us educate boaters and inspect their water equipment for aquatic invasive species (AIS). Watercraft inspectors play a crucial role in preventing the spread of invasive species such as zebra mussels, spiny waterflea, starry stonewort, and Eurasian watermilfoil. These species are non-native plants and animals that not only damage lake and river ecosystems, but also pose serious risks to the economy, recreation, and public health.

Inspectors will make $16 an hour while working a minimum of 20 hours per week primarily on weekends (Friday-Sunday) with occasional weekday shifts. Additional compensation includes time-and-a-half pay for holiday work, raises available for returning inspectors, and season-end performance-based bonuses available to all inspectors. Inspectors will work outdoors at Comfort, Bone, and Forest lakes. They will be able to educate the public about the threats of aquatic invasive species and meet people that love lakes as much as they do! All necessary training is provided, so no prior inspection or aquatic invasive species experience is required.

A full job description and application form is available at www.clflwd.org/job-openings.php. If you are interested in applying, please e-mail the completed application form to garrett.miller@clflwd.org or mail it to 44 Lake Street South, Suite A, Forest Lake, MN 55025.
