Your pets - love them not leave them: Help Blue Cross achieve this aim.



Hi, we’re Lucy and Georgia, and welcome to our Blue Cross blog! Thank you for taking the time to visit our page. With this blog, we hope to increase your knowledge or notify you on what Blue Cross do, and encourage you to help!

We want to talk a little bit about what Blue Cross does. Their main aim is to help unwanted pets and we think that you should want to as well. So many pets are struggling for survival, even though only £2 a month can keep a poorly pet alive.

On a normal Sunday evening, Blue Cross got an alarming call. When they arrived at a country lane in Brixham, they found a box of distressed kittens with two older cats nearby. The kittens were crying and very nervous and the mum nearly got run over by a car. It took a lot of effort to coax all the cats into their arms but eventually (after 2 days!) they managed it. Because of Blue Cross, these cats are now safe and are being found new homes. Blue Cross come across many tragedies like this every day, but only with your funding can they continue the amazing work they do and a range of other things.

Thank you again for taking interest in our blog, we hope that you now feel more informed about what Blue Cross do and we hope you will consider supporting our petition and Blue Cross. Please leave a comment with your thoughts. Thank you! Further information on the Blue Cross can be found at http://www.bluecross.org.uk/

In your comment we would be very grateful if you could answer these questions.

  • Have you heard about Blue Cross before?
  • Do you now feel more informed about Blue Cross and the work that they do?
  • Would you now be prepared to do any of the following things to help the Blue Cross…?
  1. Make a donation to ‘Blue Cross’?
  2. Start or join a fundraising campaign for the Blue Cross?
  3. Sign up to receive more information and get copies of their magazine ‘Blue Print’?
  4. Support Blue Cross every time you use eBay
  5. Tell your family and friends about Blue Cross and try to persuade them to help out in any of the ways above?
If you do leave us a response, please can you tell us where you come from i.e. you home town and country (if not UK!)

Thank You!
Lucy and Georgia
