A few days ago someone messaged us asking for details on what it costs a month for food, litter, basic supplies a month. So we did all the math in a break down per cat.
For basic care of food, litter and upkeep of 1 cat is approx $2.62 a day (without medications or supplements)
Per cat no extra expenses:
$2.62 a Day
$78.60 a month
$943.20 a year
Times that by 47 sanctuary cats:
$123.14 a day
$3,694.20 a month
$44,330.40 a year
Thats for basic needs and care. No emergency appointments, no medications, no supplements, nothing extra!!
As you scroll social media and see all of the smaller organizations hanging on for dear life to keep helping the animals be supportive. This is just a glimpse as to what we all deal with daily. A glimpse of what costs we stress over daily. This is just the minimum. Now add in the vet appoinments, the sick appointments, the surgeries, the medication/supplements, the special foods and emergency visits.
So many things that aren't spoken about in animal welfare and the struggles all of us battle each and everyday whether a rescue, shelter or sanctuary. Its not just about taking in an animal.
This is why we need all of you to support the animals in need. They all need you. We all need you. Even if you can spare $1 it helps one way or another. Don't like donating money. How about food or litter. Its all a need daily.
So if an organization can raise 10k for bills and supplies it doesnt last long as you can see!
Please keep sharing and helping where you can. The animals deserve it!
We ask and beg for help so Animals like Clawdia here who was left to suffer the streets of NF to have litter after litter and almost not make it herself. Shes loving sanctuary life and will never suffer again.
So please dont just scroll past and say to yourself " someone else can help" We all need to help them. ORGANIZATIONS NEED EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU.
A like, a comment a share! 50 centa $1 it all helps!!!!
