Last 7 days of Kickstarter Campaign to open Chch's first Cat Cafe.

Bronwyn Reader from Cat Rescue Christchurch

Copied and pasted on behalf of Virginia from Spreydon (who is Nate's Mum).  Like she said if we all just pledged $5 dollars they would easily get to their goal and beable to start this venture.  How exciting for them and for Christchurch.


Can we do it as a community and help this get up and go young couple.!!! 


 YES WE CAN!!!!

Hi to all you wonderful Neighbourly folk

My son, Nate, and his wife, Alyssa, are working hard to raise $25000 to help start the first every cat cafe in South Island right here in Christchurch!

They only have 1 week to go to raise the last $8000 and so I'm spreading the word about their crowd-funding project where people can pledge from just $5.00. Every pledge has a corresponding reward. Pledges will only become donations when the $25000 goal is reached.
Every pledge will be greatly appreciated and help to make a wonderful new place for people to meet, have a cuppa and something delicious to eat and interact with Cat Rescue cats and kittens - you could also give a special, forever home to one of the cats or kittens that will be available for adoption.

Check out the Catnap Cafe crowdfunding project and facebook page in the links below. 

Many thanks
Victoria

Sporting the bright purple and orange campaign shirts, these wonderful walkers hit the Auckland waterfront and marched from Mission Bay to Kohimarama, raising awareness for bowel cancer and the importance of early detection along the way.
