Thinking about Spring Decluttering and are a Cat Lover.
Hello to our lovely community of supporters.
Hopefully you all know about Webfair that Cat Rescue is currently using as a form of fundraising. People list items on the site and choose a charity to receive the money once sold.
This site was set up by an amazing family in Christchurch who wanted to reduce waste in landfills by people chucking away good items and also to help people raise monies for worthy causes.
We have raised over $2600 over many auctions with items donated by our supporters. This is not to be sneezed at as we are always looking to raise funds to pay our large vet bills.
We have large vet bills due to being a 'no kill' charity. If an animal is in pain then we will help it, regardless of its social status or breed.
Please see the photo's below of some of our rescued kittens during the past couple of years and then some photo's of kittens that have been fostered in loving homes and then adopted to a forever home. This is what Cat Rescue Christchurch does. Rescues, heals and loves.!!!!
We currently only have 25 items listed on our webfair this month, which is the lowest ever.
I am wondering if everyone could look into their cupboards and draws and find ONE item to post on Webfair this month. We have over 200 members on this site and even if 20 members posted on item and it sold, then it all helps. There are 10 fab charities on the site this month and hence a lot of people looking through all items so the audience is growing.
Also if there are any business out there that would like to donate an item over $50 you can get 4 weeks free advertising on the site. Win win scenario courtesy of webfair. Just email Donna@webfair.co.nz or Kelsey@webfair.co.nz and they can work out the details.
.
It is easy to load the webfair app on your phone, as it means you can take an instant photo and upload the item as a gift on the site very easily (easy than loading to trade me).
If you have any problems with logging on initially, first check your junk mail or email donna@webfair.co.nz and she will fix the issue. She has been great to our charity which I totally appreciate.
Psss if your item does not sell this month, then you can easily 'Relist" next month. It is as simple as a couple of processes as it retains all your previous information about the items posted but unsold..
Thank you in appreciation of your help.
Please share this post with other crazy cat people. We are a passionate bunch of people so I sure it will make a difference.
If you have any questions please ask.

Paddy Gower seeks ‘bloody great Cantab’
The Kiwi journalist drilling deep into the country’s biggest issues is on a mission to find the local greats.
Paddy Gower is looking for the Good Kiwi in every region to feature in his show, The F@#$ing News - Paddy Gower Live on Tour.
To nominate a Good Kiwi, email reporters@press.co.nz with the name and a description of why your nominee should win. You an also share the local issues you think Paddy needs to tackle in the comments below.
It could be the woman whose knitting circle has made 3800 items for victims of domestic violence, the guy running the length of Aotearoa for mental health, or the woman with terminal cancer who spends her time campaigning to raise awareness and save lives.
“Basically I am looking for ... a bloody great Cantab who just gets on and gets things done. The criteria is somebody who has a positive attitude and makes the community a better place," Gower said.
“I will give this person the 'Big Ups' they deserve, and the community can celebrate them with me.”
A Good Kiwi will feature in each of Gower’s live shows in 14 centres through November and December. He will name the Cantabrian Good Kiwi at his Christchurch show on the evening of Friday, November 22, at St Margaret’s College.
The F@#$ing News - Paddy Gower Live on Tour is a sort of book tour, sort of stand-up comedy, some journalistic yarns and memoir, and some motivational speaking - with a fair bit of local in each show.
Gower also wants to know about topics of interest in the region.
“I’m ... going to be taking on a big issue facing Canterbury and offering up solutions.”
A stinky suburb, a neighbourhood needing a round-about or a cathedral in disrepair - “I will make your views count”, he said.
“I'm touring the nation to spread positivity, optimism and good vibes.”
