How You Can
Help
There are many ways you can help
the felines at C & W. Here are a few:
·
You may sponsor a feline
at C & W for $20 a month for one cat, $35 for 2 special needs cats,
or $50 for three cats. Your sponsorships help with the general care
and feeding of those felines.
·
You may sponsor a senior
dog at C & W for $20 a month.
·
Donate to The Scratching
Post Thrift 'n Gift Shop. We are always in need of gently used items
for re-sale at our thrift shop which is located at 216 Main Street
in Nashua, Iowa. All small appliances, household, seasonal, gift
items, new items, jewelry, and anything you can share will help
support the veterinary care of felines and dogs at C & W. Left-overs
from your garage/rummage sale are also appreciated.
·
Volunteer! Come spend a
day, a weekend, or a week at our special needs sanctuary and get to
know the animals and share in their day-to-day fun and games in our
five sanctuary buildings. The felines will love your company and
will entertain you well! Ask about overnight accommodations for
volunteers as well.
·
Monetary donations are
ALWAYS needed and help us continue our work at C & W. Help Us Grow
even BIGGER! We added a fourth building in 2004, for our special FN
felines and we added a fifth building in 2008! Your donations
assure that we can continue our work and will grow into the future.
AND, the smallest donation DOES Make a Difference!!!!

Become a Supporting
MEMBER of C & W and receive the print newsletter "Shelter
Happenings" four to five times a year! C & W offers a Membership for
all to join us in declaring their support of our work. We offer you
this membership for only $20 individual; $35 family; and your pet's
membership is only $5.00! Your membership will include the Shelter
Happenings newsletter which we publish four to five times a year.
The high cost of mailing and printing is one reason we ask for a
membership. The other reason is to add your name to a list of animal
lovers who are committed to caring about animals and who believe in
the work we are doing at C & W. The membership will NOT include
t-shirts, or other give-a-ways that many large organizations send
you for your membership. Instead, more than HALF of your membership
will go directly to the care and feeding and medical needs of the
cats and dogs rescued and cared for by C & W!! That is what we are
all about! To receive our newsletter, we ask you to join us as
members and in a mission for the animals so we may continue to share
the 'good news' and 'happenings' at C & W so we can continue to
grow and help more animals.
