🐝🐝🐝🐝 It’s bees for me.

Bugger the bees. CHAT is all.

Had already voted for Celia Hammond.

Like many others, I feel the donation should be split 3 ways - even if people still had to vote but the winning charity received 40% and the two runners-up received 30% each.

Voted, thanks

Bugger the bees.

The whole planet - you included - will be buggered if bees die out. How ignorant.

I agree, but CHAT needs money yesterday and no govt policies are paying up for their cause, unlike our winged friends. Bumping...

Donkey Sanctuary please, those poor animals are literally worked to death sometimes and it’s heartbreaking, thank you

If there is a second option available please could this donation be to care for bears who are kept in appalling conditions and still used as performing animals in some countries having been taught to “dance” by playing music while they are forced to stand on hotplates, thank you

I agree, but CHAT needs money yesterday and no govt policies are paying up for their cause,

There are hundreds of charities who are solely funded by their supporters.

My point is that without bees, there will be no charities, no cats and no us. So prioritising a charity for fluffy pets over saving the planet seems a bit short-sighted to me. And I’m a lifelong cat owner.

Just to say, I voted and then received an email from Animal Friends. There was no unsubscribe button on the email and it actually said they would be contacting me again to tell me the outcome of the vote. I wonder what they will be doing with all our email addresses?

Voted for Celia Hammond,they as all the other charities do fantastic work it is so hard to choise who to vote for.

Bees for me, they are vital and underrated.

Can I ask though how an earth do you support a charity and "work with them" then put them up for a vote that may see them gain a huge amount of funding then suddenly realise..."burger me they aren't actually a registered charity!"

I'm all for charities getting much needed funding but I question the scruples of Animal Friends.

Bees for me.

Unfortunately my neighbours and i did not have great experiences with ch. we live in a very cat-dense area, tiny terraced houses with at least one or two cats in each. There were a lot of fights and many many territorial issues.

A couple of us lost our cats and went to ch. they used pretty strong arm tactics to try and force us to take two cats. I ended up going elsewhere for one as i’d had two before and had to rehome one it was that bad. My neighbour did take two but ended up with lots of spraying and other territory issues.

I realise they have more cats than homes but if someone has bery valid reasons for wanting only one adult cat they should really listen.

Street Vets are on Paul O Grady For The Love Of Dogs now....

CHaT!

I would definitely support Street Vet I already support Dogs on the Streets , wonderful charities SV gets my vote
