An anonymous donor hopes to inspire the community by matching their donations to Seattle Area Feline Rescue in memory of her cat.
Shoreline, WA (December 22, 2022) – Christmas is coming early for the cats at Seattle Area Feline Rescue (SAFe) —an anonymous donor has offered to match donations made through the end of the year in memory of her beloved cat, Noodle.
“Noodle was a professional house cat” the donor tells SAFe, “but he loved taking walkies (and naps) in his yard with his mom. He lived to be 17 years old and brought a lifetime of love to his mom and his two rabbits.”

To honor his long life of bringing joy and love to everyone around him, Noodle's mom will be matching donations to SAFe this winter, dollar-for-dollar, up to $40,000!
“We know the happiness that comes with having a loyal friend and companion like Noodle, “says SAFe’s Development Manager “and we're glad to honor Noodle's legacy by giving more families and cats a chance to experience that joy!"The community’s generosity this winter will be amplified by Noodle's love and go twice as far to help homeless cats get the care they need and find loving homes.”

Grey tabby kitties are the bestest
ReplyDeleteThis is a very worthy cause. I would also encourage people to donate to animal welfare charities in parts of the state that are less fortunate than Seattle.
ReplyDeleteOne shining example is Partners for Pets in Spokane. They are run on a shoestring by dedicated volunteers, yet they gulp hard and send selected kittens to the WSU vet hospital in Pullman when an expensive investment in treatment early in life can save a sweet little soul. Our family has adopted from Yakima, Tacoma, and even from a van ferrying cats from California north for placement, but no shelter I've ever seen has been better managed than Partners for Pets.
We give to P4P every year. We have no relationship with them other than being enthusiastic donors.
Noodle looks like a sweet kitty cat. Thank you to the generous donor!
