I chose the charity the Blue cross because, I felt that it was unfair that animals can be treated unfairly. Many of the animals found at the blue cross have been abandoned or been abused.
The Blue Cross was founded in 1948. The person who started the charity chose to start it because, she felt bad for the animals being beaten, abounded or even used to make puppies, kittens or baby animals by breeding them. She thought that if the animals had been treated unfairly that they should deserve a second chance.
The Blue Cross help because, they try and find new homes for the animals that have been abused. They care for the animals and hopefully give them a second chance at life.
The Blue Cross takes in animals ranging from a dog, cat, guinea pig, horse and hamsters. Each of these different animals have sections at the Blue Cross centre to suit each of their needs. If the animal needs vetinary equipment the Blue Cross will fund it with money that has been donated to the charity.
If you would be willing to help the Blue Cross you can donate or maybe even give them a home. By simply spreading the word about the Blue Cross it could change their lives. Volunteers are always welcome. Even though the Blue cross does help the animals you could give them so much more. You could give them a house, a family, toys, love and time. By donating money only £2 a month you are helping so many animals with a second chance.
I find that people don’t realise the importance of the Blue Cross. The animals at the Blue Cross deserve much more and can find it with the love, enjoyment and new life that you could give them.
Badly treated animals rely on donations and volunteers to find trust back in their life. After being abused or put in difficult situations by some of the owners that have previously owned them, many of the animals find it hard to find love and trust again.
Many of the dogs that are found at the Blue Cross were found in this situation ^^^ nobody there for them to care for, no one to treat them well, no love, no food no loyalty. This isn’t fair. After many of the situations that animals have been found in they have many injuries and sometimes cannot survive for much longer.
The Blue Cross would never put a healthy animal down when it still has a chance at life.
