Here at SINAL we have entered the winter! Winter in Brazil means that we have temperatures around ten degrees at night and twenty during the day. Although our winters aren’t as cold as the ones in Europe or the US, the humidity in the air chills the property. But unlike us, our forty cats spend most of their life outside. They walk around outside, play, and most importantly they sleep outside.So with ten degrees at night, they got a little cold. You could see them cuddle themselves together on chairs and benches to stay off of the ground. So we decided to create “hot spots” for our 40 cats . We chose areas where they like to gather at night. We chose two verandas in front and underneath our houses, the favorite spots of approximately 30 cats. We laid out thick cotton blankets, and are happy to report the cats were very excited about claiming them immediately! Now when we walk around SINAL property we can see them day and night laying on their favorite blanket.Additionally, we want to inform you about the July bonus day - Donations over 100US$ made on July 18th will be matched by GlobalGiving! So bring some friends together and help us maintain a safe and comfy home for our 40 cats.
