If I didn't have to ask, I wouldn't. But since this is not for me, but for the benefit of the animals around me, I will. The rescue operates first from what I am able to spare, including my time. However, due to my financial limitations, I am only able to rescue one animal at a time.
By asking for donations, I am increasing the pace at which I can help the animals in my area. Whether it's getting veterinary care and neutering for a kitten that can be rehomed or participating in TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) for a feral cat, donations make a significant difference. Unfortunately, not all cats can be tamed and rehomed.
With your donations, I may be able to help more than one animal at a time, including possibly rescuing some of Onyx's littermates.
Onyx was the motivation I needed to start rescuing again. I had been waiting for my finances to improve, but when a starving kitten is begging strangers for food, you have to act. Additionally, the feral cat population has been steadily increasing and is becoming a problem.
If you are in a position to donate, you can do so at any time via Streamlabs PayPal Tips. These tips appear on my livestream when I am live on Twitch and will be documented on the accounting page. If you do not wish for your name to be shared, simply write "anonymous" in the comment field.
Another way to donate is through our Amazon wish list: Amazon Wish List. Purchasing an item from there will ship it directly to the rescue. Sometimes, Amazon misses the note in the package. If you want your name shared, be sure to include it in the note so I can thank you.
Another option is donating thru GiveSendGo.
If you live in the Kansas City area, and wish to make donations of goods, you can contact us at rescue@restlessanimalrescue.org
All donations are tracked on the accounting page. Everything here is done with full disclosure. Although I am not yet a licensed rescue or charity, I am committed to transparency. I also keep supplies used for the rescues separate as much as possible. Full transparency is important to me, especially in this endeavor.
I am donating my time and receive no salary for my work with the rescue. Mileage will be tracked but likely not compensated. The animals are the priority.
