THE REFUGE FOR CATS (VERDUN) NEEDS YOU!
Did you know that, since its establishment in 1999, the Refuge for cats (Verdun) has helped save and find permanent homes for over 4000 cats? All donation money received is used towards the rescue of abandoned cats, their vaccination and their sterilization. The cats are then placed in foster families, where they are housed temporarily until they find adoptive homes.
Because every penny counts…
By making a donation to our shelter, you contribute to getting cats off the streets. Too many cats are abandoned, left to fend for themselves or even left for dead. Abandoned cats or those born outside are at a greater risk of catching diseases, getting injuries that can get infected leading to serious handicaps or even causing death. They are also exposed to natural and human elements that can be harmful to their health, such as harsh winter weather, various rodent poisons, car traffic and so much more. All cats deserve a fair chance.
Your donation will go directly towards our efforts to rescue, provide treatment, sterilize, and vaccinate homeless cats, in order to give them the second chance to find a loving family, which they deserve. All our success up to now would not have been possible without your compassion and generosity. Thank you for supporting us in our efforts to help our furry friends.
