This is a different kind of cat walk! Registration is now open for VOKRA Walk for the Kitties 2018, presented by FirstMate Pet Foods. The 5km walk takes place at Jericho Beach and all funds raised go directly towards supporting the organization’s rescue efforts.
VOKRA Walk for the Kitties
Where: Beach Path, West of Jericho Sailing Club (1300 Discovery St, Vancouver)
When: Sunday, September 16, 2018 at 10:00am
Participation: Register online now for the 5km walk for $25 (plus fee). Dogs are welcome to tag along and you can grab a free ticket for them online as well.
As a volunteer-driven non-profit, the Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association (“VOKRA”) relies on Walk for the Kitties to raise much needed funds to help them rescue more than 1,400 cats and kittens each year.
Their mission is to end cat overpopulation and homelessness. They rescue, heal, then place cats – first in their network of foster homes, then in carefully matched, loving, forever homes. They are a passionate, volunteer-driven charity with extensive cat care experience. They believe that no-kill is the only responsible approach to rescue, that Trap-Neuter-Return works and that cats are AWESOME!
Here’s how your contributions help:
$25 buys a flat of food
$50 provides one cat with care for a month
$85 covers the cost of one spay/neuter
$100 buys 20 nursing kits used to feed orphaned kittens
Donations, pledges, and support from the Walk for the Kitties will help VOKRA buy food, litter, and even spay/neuter treatments for local cats. Follow them on Facebook and Twitter for more information.
