Fantastic news from Moggies Cat Rescue Aberdare - EilDor
HUGE NEWS AND HEARTFELT THANKS..🐾
For many months, we’ve wanted to open our very own shop.
As many of you know, our vet bills are constantly sky-high, costing thousands of pounds every month.
Every single penny we raise goes straight toward paying those bills and ensuring every cat and kitten in our care gets the love and medical attention they deserve.
Because of this, saving up enough extra capital to actually open a shop always felt just out of reach.
Every time we were close to having enough, a high cost cat crisis would occur and we’d be back to square one.
But now we have news……
We applied for the incredible Pen y Cymoedd Wind Farm Community Fund CIC Micro Fund Grant... and we were SUCCESSFUL! 🥂🎉
This amazing grant means our dream is finally becoming a reality.
By funding our shop opening, Pen Y Cymoedd is helping us take a massive step toward becoming more self-sufficient and ensuring we can keep rescuing cats for years to come.
But this isn't just about the kitties—it's about our community too! The shop will bring wonderful new volunteering and training opportunities to the area also. Something we are hugely keen on here.
😻Introducing: Moggies Boutique – Rescued & Reloved😻 (Just like our cats!)
Opening this July and based in Aberdare town centre, our boutique will feature beautifully curated homeware and gorgeous preloved clothing.
Not only will you be supporting the rescue, but you’ll also be helping the planet by keeping clothing and household items out of landfills.
Sustainable shopping at its finest! 🌍💚
🔨 Where we are at right now...
Behind the scenes, we’ve been working our paws off! There is so much hard work already underway—building, decorating, installing counters, fixtures, fittings, and even a brand-new doorstep and door.
A quick note on donations: We know you're probably eager to clear out your wardrobes for us (and we love you for it!), but we are NOT currently accepting donations just yet. We will let you know the exact moment we are ready to receive your wonderful items!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to Pen Y Cymoedd for believing in us, and thank you to ALL of you who support us every single day. We cannot wait to welcome you through our doors next month! 😻🏢
Stay tuned for updates on our official opening date!
