From humble beginnings in 1980, where we looked after animals in our homes, we have progressed to now having a shelter in Heathlawn, Killimor, Co.Galway and a shop, offices and cattery in Galway City.
Galway Twestival will be held on September the 12th. The local charity that we aim to raise money for that has been selected is the GSPCA or the Galway Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The GSPCA are badly in need of a new cattery for all their cats and kittens which the staff of the GSPCA are housing and sharing space with in their headquarters on Augustine Street. It costs 50-60,00 euros to build a cattery to house 40-50 cats and their kittens. We hope to raise as much as we can. Hopefully with Twitter having gathered momentum this year more people will attend Twestival Galway in September. Twestival Galway was a success last time and it would be great to have Twestival Local an even bigger success this time around.
