~ Sponsor A Cat ~

Would you like to help AWA by sponsoring a cat?
We know that many of you would like to do something to help us
with our rescue work but aren't able to be actively involved
with fundraising or by adopting or fostering a cat.

Here is your chance to make a contribution to our cause and
be recognized for your generosity by sponsoring a cat on our website.
You can choose the cat you wish to help and whatever level
of sponsorship you wish. In return you will receive a tax receipt,
a thank-you letter with a photo of 'your cat' and
"Sponsored by (your name)" added to that cat's page on our website.
Your name will also be added to  a special Sponsors' Page on the website.
Sponsors may also remain anonymous if they wish.

Any donation amount will make you a sponsor and you may make
a one time donation or contribute on a monthly basis.
This chart will give you an idea of some of our
costs and what your donation will cover or go towards:


Physical Exam
$43.00
First Needles
$52.00
Booster & Rabies
$65.00
Neuter
$106.00
Kitten Spay
$165.00
Adult Spay
$188.00
Worming
$26.00
Flea Control
$18.00
Leukemia Test
$38.00
Board per Week
$63.00

As you can see, our $100 adoption fee does not even cover
the basic medical costs for each cat, let alone the boarding expenses.
Also, many cats come in to us with injuries or infections that require
extra medications and expensive veterinary care.  But
we feel that raising our adoption fee is not the answer
 as it would most surely result in fewer adoptions.
We have also been struggling to come up with some new
fundraising ideas as some of our old standbys,
such as Regal and Bingo have been lost.

Please consider sponsoring a cat and help us to find loving homes
for some of the many desperate stray cats and kittens in our city.

To become a sponsor, please send your sponsorship
donation and the name of the cat you wish to help to:

Animal Welfare Association
P.O. Box 57423, Jackson Station
Hamilton, ON  L8P 4X2
You may also call us at (905) 544-1053 and 547-4169
or send an email to awa@xux.net
