Celebrating Catwalk Challenge

On the 1st of October we kicked off our first annual Ten Lives Ten Day Catwalk Challenge crowdfunder!
Ten Lives Manager Noel Hunt said the Challenge aims to raise $10,000 in 10 days to cover after hours emergency vet bills for our foster kitties during this kitten season.
“Each year during kitten season, Ten Lives has to find over $10,000 for after hours emergency vet services.” He said, “This is on top of running our own Vet Surgery during business hours where we are providing more than 10,000 treatments per year to all the lost and unwanted cats and kittens.”
21 participants took part in the Catwalk Challenge, raising over $7,500. The Challenge promoted responsible cat ownership including containing your cat, along with encouraging enrichment for cats, and of course, provided some great social media content!
Thank you to all of our participants and to everyone who supported them by making a donation. A special shout out to Fergie who had his donations generously matched dollar-for-dollar by the Vodafone Foundation. After this year’s success, it will now become an annual fundraiser for Ten Lives!
