Sponsorship: Room in your heart but not in your home?
(See individual cats and their bios on next page.)
Peninsula Friends of Animals operates because of mostly volunteer work, including animal guardians near and far, fundraising and donations from the community. One important form of donating is the Sponsorship of a cat with Special Needs.
A "Special Needs Cat" is hard to adopt because of age, illness, injury, trauma, shyness or a variety of other conditions. For instance, a cat with diabetes typically requires a special diet and may require daily insulin injections and regular blood testing. A traumatized cat may have been abused or injured and now finds it difficult to trust humans which results in shyness or unreliable behavior.
Why do they need sponsoring?
Special Needs Cats are harder to find Forever Homes for because of the extra medical care and attention they require. Medical costs are higher for our Special Needs companions. Food and shelter are expensive. Sponsoring enables us to continue providing these felines with the best care possible. Most of them will stay with us forever, receiving medical care, love and the respect they deserve.
What are the benefits of sponsorship?
Sponsorship is a wonderful way to add a new feline to your family without actually taking it into your home.
Sponsors receive updates and photos of their cat along with the satisfaction of helping a precious feline in need.
Sponsors also receive a tax deduction.
The Perfect Gift Idea
You can sponsor an animal for yourself, your family, or a friend. How about your company, class or club? It's a wonderful way to teach children about our responsibility to help other living creatures, and it's a great way to acknowledge birthdays, anniversaries or other special occasions.
Sponsoring a Cat is Easy!
Monthly sponsorship is just $10 per cat. A cat may also be sponsored for an entire year for $120 or for a cat's lifetime for $500. Upon receipt of your check or letter expressing interest in sponsoring a Special Needs cat, we will send you pictures of your sponsored cat along with a story about the cat's history and how he or she got to be with PFOA.
