Kitty City Virtual Tour of Construction Site

Your Donations are at Work!

Kitty City is well underway and taking shape, thanks to your help. The construction is moving along at a good pace; we are still on target for occupancy in November, and full use by the end of the year.  

Take a Virtual Tour

I've prepared a short video so you can virtually visit the Kitty City construction site and see our progress.  As I walk around the site I envisage how it will be transformed into the new home for our cats and kittens.  I can image the Kitty Cafe in the corner, the sitting area under the cat mural on the long wall, the souvenier shop, the garden where the cats will play and socialize with potential forever home families, the cat sleeping area up the steps...  I hope that you can do the same on your tour.  Click Kitty City Construction Video Tour to take the tour.

The finishing touches are now being finalized.  They include wall murals by renowned 'cat' artists, cat play structures in the garden area, and special menu items for the Kitty Cafe.  We are even planning a grand opening event and attempting to source some 'famous' people to help cut the ribbon and pop the bottle of bubbly.  If you know any ‘celebrities’ that love animals, let us know and we’ll invite them to attend.

Already Showing its Value!

Kitty City has already been valuable for us and our cats.  Recent torrential rain in Koh Lanta caused major flooding at our Centre.  One night, during the heaviest of rainfalls, our volunteers had to be out in the pouring rain, relocating all our cats from the current cat house to the new cat sleeping area in Kitty City.  This area is elevated, leak-free and dry.  It was a perfect refuge for our scared damp felines.  The project that you are funding is already providing valuable shelter for our cats.  Thank goodness for Kitty City!

We are so Close!

Thanks to your generosity, we have raised just over $37,000 towards our goal of $43,000.  While we are in the home stretch, we can’t relax just yet.  We are diligently working at raising the last $5,000 for our project. 

It will be busy for us over the next few months, as we prepare for the move to Kitty City. These are very exciting times for Lanta Animal Welfare.  We are so pleased that we can continue to share our Kitty City journey with you in these Reports, as it is you that has made all this possible.

My Sincere Gratitude to You for Your Support

I want to sincerely thank you for your generosity and for helping us with our Kitty City Project fundraising.  Please let me know if you have any comments, questions or suggestions.  And by all means contact us if you are going to be visiting Koh Lanta.  I will arrange a personalized tour of our Centre, and show you the wonderful rescue work we are doing here on Koh Lanta.
