Hi Gabbie,

I like your passion for cats also find your idea admirable and full of potential. However, the cost could become quite seriously expensive, especially depending on your geographical location.

I would like to see more data on the financials for this project.

Noble initiative which will raise the obvious question of what is the financial model here? Costs for Shelter Establishments will be prohibitive unless its model is self-sustaining.
Maybe consider providing a digital platform to advertise on behalf of existing cat shelters and have a briefing kit to train the trainers?

That’s a great question, especially since we’re still in the early stages of planning. Right now, we’re considering two different ideas. The first is to build a physical shelter on a piece of land we already own, which could save us a lot of money. The other idea is to create a digital platform where we partner with existing shelters. We’d showcase each cat’s story and even allow people to donate to those shelters through our website.

As for our finances, we’ll be open about them once we have our core team in place. We want everyone to know exactly where their support is going as we grow together.
