We all know how awful it can feel to be sick, stressed, or overwhelmed. This year, the number of cats arriving at Oakland’s city shelter has increased by 16% over last year, meaning more cats are in cages, scared and unsure of their future. Your support today gives us the chance to step in, and help these cats remember what it’s like to let their guards down, feel comfort, and experience joy again.
That’s why an anonymous donor has stepped up with a $5,000 challenge match — but we still need your support. Can we count on you to help us reach our goal?
Alexis Rose at the city shelter.
More cats at the city shelter means the shelter’s limited resources are stretched thinner. That means more cats who need us, like Alexis Rose — an anxious girl who doesn’t understand why she’s at the shelter after living in a home, and feels stressed by the big changes in her life.
Your donation today means we can give cats like her the gift of hope — the simple affirmation that someone cares, and although things are difficult right now, there’s promise of love, happiness, and a warm lap ahead. Best of all, for the next 48 hours, your gift will be doubled, up to $5,000, to help twice as many cats.
Together we can make the world a little brighter for sick, stressed, and overlooked shelter cats. We hope you’ll donate today, so we can give them the chance they deserve at a better life.
When someone found KissKiss limping in the street, they got her to Oakland Animal Services. Support from donors like you helped us get this sweet senior cat to the vet and into foster care. Cat Town runs on your donations — so please consider making a gift today to support twice as many cats in need!
