You readthat right: $20,000.000

There's a bit of a catch, though: this double your donation challenge is ONLY valid from 8 AM (EST) Friday, December 27th until midnight on New Year's Eve, December 31st. So, c'mon! Pitch in, and help all of your animal friends at Rikki's.

Rikki's Refuge is home to almost 1300 animals, of over 20 species; and over 600 are cats (Yay, cats! Cats rule, dogs drool. Oops, sorry, getting distracted ...)

It costs about $1per day to take care of each and every one of us at Rikki's. For some, the cost is more per day, and for others, it's less, but it averages to about $1 per animal per day. In round numbers, that's about $1400 per day, EACH AND EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR. In today's short-hand, that $1400/day X 24/7/365. Wow, that's a lot of money we need each and every day at Rikki's.

Now let's do some math. If, yes IF,we meet the $20,000 donation challenge, then that will mean a total of $40,000 for Rikki's. At $1400 per day, the $40,000 ONLY lasts about 28 days.

Gosh, that's scary, isn't it?

But this scared kitty can dream, can't he?

My daddy, Vincent, dreamed about stuff like this all the time,

and his dreams almost always came true.

Now I need to follow in my daddy, Vincent's, paw steps,

and help make my dream of meeting this challengecome true!

Will YOU help me?

And to do that, to meet thedonor challenge, I need YOU!

Yes, you.

The one out there reading this, the one following me on Vincent Cat's Facebook page. PLEASE! Make my dream come true. It's almost the end of the year, and you get a tax write-off for any donation you make.   www.RikkisRefuge.org/Donate

And, yourdonation will be doubled -- it's almost like magic.   Please give, please help us. Your $1 becomes $2; your $5 becomes $10; your $20 becomes $40; your $50 becomes $100; your $100 becomes $200, your $250 becomes $500; your $500 becomes $1000!
