Cats Protection’s latest campaign is concentrating on the plight of older cats.

The multi-level campaign targets three different gorups of supporters. A highly 
personalised pack is to be sent to high value donors and other regular donors will
either be asked for a one-off cash gift or an upgrade to their existing direct debit
arrangement.

Designed by TDA, the appeal used emotional and rational messages surrounding older
cats to engage supporters. Older cats can make excellent pets, but because of their
age they can also require ongoing medical attention, resulting in additional costs
for Cats Protection while they are in the charity’s care, and longer stays because
people are more reluctant to take on an animal with a known medical condition.
