Red Deer & District SPCA hasn't added a story.
Nobody wants to end up behind bars, and for a cat – it’s no
different. It's time to give them the free roam space they deserve.
Here at our SPCA, we try to turn no animal away. Sometimes that
can be difficult with over 140 cats in our shelter at any given
time. With so many cats, we rely heavily on our volunteers to come in
for snuggles, stress-busting and the “Ooh yeah…right there” scratches
that every feline adores so much.
We have over 100 volunteers dedicated to giving our cats
attention, and our dream is to reward those volunteers with a room
specifically for the cat cuddling they specialize in. With more
animals coming in than ever before, there’s just no space for the cats
to get the attention they deserve *ahem* demand!
The Hairball Hangout is a renovation project we’re working on here at the Red Deer & District SPCA to convert an unused hallway into a room specifically for our kennel cats to stretch their legs, get some exercise, escape their kennels, and spend some much needed time with the volunteers they love so much.
------------------------------------------------------
We need
funding for:
- A glass wall/door unit - $2350
- A bench,
catwalk, scratching posts and cat accessories - $1000
- Paint,
renovation tools, lighting upgrades and decorations - $650
-------------------------------------------------------
As
a maximum adoption facility, some of our cats stay with us for months
upon months, others have been with us longer than a year.
We
simply NEED to give them a place to stretch, roam and embrace their
curious nature. The kennels are only meant to be temporary, they are
not ideal for long term habitation and can begin to affect a cat’s
personality and well-being. Our volunteers give our cats a
much-needed break, and it’s time to reward them with some space of
their own.
A million “Thank You’s” to all of our supporters, and those who help us create our dream of a cat cuddling room here at the Red Deer & District SPCA.
