last chance cat ranch
last chance cat ranch facebook
some very dear friends of mine, I don't have any affiliation otherwise... but, they are fucking struggling, to the point they might have to shut down... and the cause is close to my heart as it gets.. I fucking love kittiehs, these people are doing everything they can to help kitties off the street, kitties coming from abused homes, unwanted kitties etc... even $5 would help these people, that's a bag of cat food..
save the kittehs!

"We are The Last Chance Cat Ranch, located in Lethbridge, Alberta. We are a Not For Profit - No Kill Cat Rescue. We do not receive any financial support from the City of Lethbridge, nor the Alberta Government. We rely 100% on the generousity of our supporters, and fund raise constantly. We currently have over 100 cats and kittens in our care. This last few months have been particularly challenging. With the downturn in the economy here in Alberta we are seeing more abandonments and owner surrenders. We have also experienced a decline is our normal donations.
This summer we had 26 kittens dumped off on a volunteer's lawn, all very sick. The vet bills alone for this bunch of cuties (dubbed the kit and kaboodle 26'rs) was over $5 grand. We also had a beautiful male tabby who we have called Angus, who was thrown from a vehicle on the highway, suffering major road rash, and lacerations. Another big vet bill. He has recovered beautifully and is a lovely soft gentle soul. We have had several other cats come in with wounds, one sweet kitten who we now call Little Jack Sparrow, lost an eye. Another large vet bill. All cats that come into our care are spayed or neutered as soon as possible if they have not already been altered. Kittens are spayed or neutered when they are old enough. We are passionate about this, we must control the pet population. Normal vetting, food, litter and other amenities must all be fund raised for as well. With the BIG issues this summer, we find ourselves outstanding to our vet's in the amount of $10, 000.00. Until we can pay these bills down, we will not be able to care for any issue that crops up, or help with any new one that comes. Paying down these bills has become crucial. This $10K does not include our normal day to day outlay for food , litter and ongoing medications which runs in the neighbourhood of 2 grand a month.
Anything anyone can donate would be appreciated greatly. The cat's and kittens would be extremely grateful. The volunteer's who worry constantly about the welfare of those forgotten and abandoned would also be extremly grateful for any generousity shown.
Thank you in advance for helping us.

i'm sure this sounds bad, but the lack of consistent typing and grammatical/mechanical errors come off as unprofessional and is a major dissuading factor, for me, whether or not i would choose to donate money to a cause.
it pays to be professional [in appearance] when appealing for donations, and these people do not come off that way from their plea.

how professional do you want them to be?.. they are real, legit people, doing exactly as they say... honestly, the money goes to the care of the cats first and foremost, not editors and shit like that... this isn't a big organization, it's some people who happen to really love cats, and have a soft spot for the ones who are being shunned and what not, it's a small local thing, with a strong desire to help homeless/abused cats... 
they've been around here for quite awhile, but since august or so, they've been overwhelmed.. and december is always a huge influx.. it's fucking cold!..
should I post more links?... would that help?...

Darn. It looks like they only take Credit Card. I might email them tomorrow and ask if they will do a bank transfer.
Poor kitties. I hope they get help. It looks like donations are over $4000 already though.

they could review and edit their postings before publishing. i'm not insinuating that they are scamming. your posting more links doesn't change anything about my statements.
if one is seeking $10-25k dollars from the public, it would help significantly to appear as professional as possible; the first step of which would entail having grammatically/mechanically accurate content. at this point, they might as well have "emojis" in their posting to really tug at one's heartstrings
them taking a few minutes to revise and edit could be the difference in people taking them seriously and receiving substantially more donations
