Hello there!
I have no idea if this works internationally, I’ve never done this before, but I’ll try anyway.
Some time ago a cat showed up in front of our house, we fed him, gave water, and eventually he felt comfortable enought to finally enter our yard and make this, apparently, his place to stay (it wasn’t really our intention, but we wouldn’t let him be thirsty and in need. He wouldn’t even eat if we were near, he’d wait for us to close the gate to do it. So when I say “finally” I just mean that he was letting his guard down a bit). He goes out, but always come back, and I’m guessing he sensed he could trust to be safe here. And he is. However, and I don’t really know if I’m saying this correctly because english is not my first language, but on this yard there’s more than one house and one of the families that lives here, don’t like cats (for absolutely no reason) and complains even thought the cat has never done anything to them and minds his own business all the time.
I can’t take him in, wish I could, but my cat is very hostile when it comes to that and doesn’t accept it. An aunt of mine, who also lives here, already has 6 cats, and as much as she considered taking him in, it’s financially difficult. The ideal would be for him to be adopted, but people usually prefer to adopt cats if they’re kittens still and this one we’re guessing is at least 2 years old. Young, but an adult, and it adds another layer of difficulty for the adoption (which is crazy in my opinion, give adult cats love!!!), but, we thought that if we castrate him it’d be easier to get the adoption to happen.
We hope for a safe and responsible adoption, someone who loves and respect cats and that’ll give the loving and secure home that he deserves. As much as it makes me happy to know that he finds here a safe spot, it breaks my heart that he doesn’t have an actual house, doesn’t have a bed to curl up, and on these outings he always gets into fights and comes back with injuries (thankfully never nothing too serious). This needs to stop. I don’t know if he’ll find a family or become a part of my aunt’s family, but we want to do the castration anyway, and that’s why I’m doing this post.
There’s this website where you can do donations, so we put up one for him, to raise the money to cover his castration, because we can’t afford that on our own at the moment, but it’s been a week and we had no donations so far 💔. So I thought I’d put up the link around here to try to get more help, like I said, I don’t know if it works, but I’ll try anyway.
The website for donations is here.
I hope this works, and if people can’t donate, i hope people to share so it spreads the help. This is him, by the way. My aunt has been calling him Jon Snow:
If you read until here, thanks for the attention, thanks for the help. Lots of love and blessings to you all. 💙
