Cat’astrophe!

Thank you very much for taking an interest in my citizenship blog which focuses on the topic of abandoned and neglected cats. I am trying to raise the awareness of the public and my family and friends. The charity I have chosen to advocate for is The Blue Cross which is a registered charity run by volunteers and completely funded by donations, cat adoption fees and fund raising events. Also people sometimes bring them in as they can’t handle the cat anymore.

The blue cross has to buy food for many cats and then keep them entertained, this means paying for more staff. Does the thought of helpless animals being left, malnourished on the streets, often treated cruelly and beaten upset you? Imagine how the animal feels, they are going through all of this and need your help. Does it make you angry when you see pictures of malnourished cats like the one above? Would you like to help put a stop to animals like this suffering further? Are you a cat lover who doesn’t understand how loving pets could be abandoned to fend on their own?

The Blue Cross are currently fund raising and need more money to finance their work in proactively finding abandoned and stray cats, returning them to good health and finding them loving homes. The number of cats brought in to the Blue Cross centres by their owners is also on the increase because people cannot afford to care for them in these trying financial times are on the increase as well. We will never turn a cat away. As the number of cat’s increases, so do the food and accommodation costs as well as the day to day running costs of the centres, so it is vital that people, who care, like you, get involved in fund raising projects. The organisation is staffed by cat lovers from all walks of life and any help you could give would be appreciated. If you want to do something, why not volunteer. Go to the blue cross web site for details. If you are unable to help with your time then please donate to the charity as much as you can and help us to help more distressed and abandoned pets. Please answer my questionnaire and give feedback; any comments will be much appreciated. Thank you once again for choosing to read my blog I hope I have taught you more. It would be helpful if you could please state the country & town that you live in if not in the UK and post a brief comment to the questions below.
