Kittens need your help
January 29th, 2009
The RSPCA has been inundated with unwanted kittens and is asking the public to help them have some fun and keep cosy. Both the Lonsdale and city shelters are in dire need of toys, blankets and money so we can help the thousands of kittens we receive over summer have a happy and healthy stay at the RSPCA. The Society is looking for new and/or second hand toys and blankets. We’re also asking Adelaide animal lovers to reach into their hip pockets, by making either a one off donation, or becoming a ‘Feline Friend’ which involves sponsoring a cat cage.
The RSPCA has to find hundreds of thousands of dollars for vaccinations, desexing, microchipping and a myriad of other medical treatments.
Any donation, large or small, would help to keep our homeless ‘kitties’ free of disease and, importantly, prevent them from having more unwanted offspring.
Every year the RSPCA receives around 6,000 cats and kittens. Disease as well as a lack of homes means over half of them are euthanased. The RSPCA is once again pleading with cat owners to desex these cats and stop these kittens being ‘born to die.’
Toys, blankets and donations can be brought into 172 Morphett St., City, (RSPCA Headquarters), the Lonsdale Shelter, 25 Meyer Road, Lonsdale or any of our thrift shops, located at Warradale, Brighton, Blackwood or Semaphore.

I will be collecting blankets and toys to bring into the shelters to help some of these poor creatures during winter. I really want to help them and you guys out this winter.
