Your Teal Cat Dollars At Work
I received the best email from the San Francisco SPCA yesterday and I wanted to share it with everyone so that you can see how much your support is helping. I hope it gives you as many warm fuzzies as it did me. Laura Gretch is the Community Cares manager at the SFSCPA, and she wrote:
“I can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done for the Community Cats Program and for the SF SPCA. We’re so thankful, and humbled that you picked us for the latest Teal Cat Campaign. Thrilled is the word for how much was raised in such a short period of time. It truly is a testament to how dedicated to your cause you are, and how your fans respond with such gusto!
…
With your generous gift, we were able to purchase some new traps – desperately needed to meet the growing demand. Now that we’ve been able to add to our inventory, our volunteers can take on more trapping projects simultaneously, which means more feral cats spaneutered, more lives saved, and more goodwill spread. Onward to ending animal abandonment!”
Onward indeed! We have many wonderful things coming up, including a new campaign in March. Our last campaign raised $3200, and then, when I used my birthday as an excuse for even more donations, we raised an additional $1800, bringing the grand total to a cool $5000 for the SFSPCA. Amazing! There aren’t enough exclamation marks in the world to express my excitement and gratitude. xo

[…] There have been so many rewarding moments. I suppose if I had to pick one, it’s when The San Francisco SPCA sent us photos of the traps that Teal Cat funded. It’s great to see the real results of our work! (You can read about it here: “Your Teal Cat Dollars at Work”). […]
This is so, so awesome!
For real, happy tears. I used to volunteer/work at a shelter in Saskatoon, SK (www.streetcat.ca) and I can totally appreciate what a huge difference a donation like that can make to an organization.
Thanks you folks, you are awesome. <3
this is really fantastic! also, i’m totally fixating on the word “spaneutered,” which i’ve never heard before but am really digging.
I’m a feral cat rescuer in northern Idaho in the Sandpoint area. We’ve had one fundraiser so far — “Jazz for Cats” on 11/11/11. We raised over $600 for spay/neuter/food for our local colonies of city cats. Folks also came in cat outfits. Our local Panhandle Animal Shelter handles the funds. It’s no-kill.
Your work is great! We need to find you some kitty statues! How could we work together?
