Amy Finch adopted a rescue cat named Boris from us almost a year ago. Boris has settled in really well and is firmly part of the family.
In honour of Boris and as a thank you to RSPCA South London, Amy very kindly decided to run a half-marathon to raise money for us. She set up a Just Giving page and included the words below.
“I am running my first ever half marathon at the Haughley Festival of Running, which falls on the closest weekend marking the year’s anniversary of us adopting Boris.
Boris was rescued by the RSPCA as a stray. He had a nasty neck wound and was incredibly anxious. We didn’t see Boris for weeks after adoption as he just hid away from us. Now, eight months on, he is so brave and sociable and his neck is much better! Boris loves Dreamies and chasing toys. We thank the RSPCA for giving Boris a second chance. I dread to think what our little man’s life could have been like without their help.
I want to raise money for the RSPCA South London Branch, who rescued Boris, so they can continue to help other animals in need.”
Happily Amy completed the course in a very respectable 2 hours 36 minutes and fabulously raised £386.25 to be used for our animal welfare activities. Well done Amy!
If you would like to raise money through an event or activity like Amy did, we would be absolutely thrilled to hear from you. It’s really easy to set up a Just Giving page (click Just Giving to sign up and see details) and we would publicise your efforts before and after your event/activity on this website and our social media pages.
