Your donations are turning our dream of Kitty City into a reality. Construction is now underway for Kitty City, and all of us working at Lanta Animal Welfare are thrilled!
At the time of writing this Report we are more than 3/4 of the way to our financial goal, so it's time to begin building Kitty City. It's low season here on Koh Lanta, meaning that there are very few tourists on the island. Most of the resorts, bungalows, shops and restaurants are closed. The majority of the locals here work in the tourist industry, and they are now laid off for the low season months. What a perfect opportunity to begin our construction! There are many good workers available for our construction team, and most of them are highly skilled in the building trades. And the bonus is that with 5 months of low season ahead of us, we have plenty of time to complete the Kitty City construction before high season is upon us.
As a bonus for this report, I thought I'd introduce you to some of our long term volunteers, and share with you how they feel about being here at Lanta Animal Welfare. Maybe their words can encourage you (or your friends and family) to consider spending time volunteering with us.
Moving forward, I will be providing regular updates to share our Kitty City progress with you. If you have any questions, or would like more information on Lanta Animal Welfare, please let me know.
You should all be so proud of yourselves for helping us care for our rescue cats!
