Haworth Cat Rescue on Ebay |
|
|

We are aware that some buyers have bought from us recently because they want the item, but they don't like cats, so they have left untrue negative feedback. We have tried unsuccessfully to have this removed. All the money that we raise on eBay goes direct to Haworth Cat Rescue, and Haworth Cat Rescue pays the eBay fees and the paypal fees (when this payment method is used by buyers). Cheques/postal orders are made to HCR and we have our own Paypal account which feeds into our bank account. Our bank account is a two signature account, as recommended by the Charity Commission. We also offer the payment option of direct bank transfer. If we need to buy packaging materials, then these come out of the money we've received on eBay, but no individual gets any money from our auctions and no-one in our charity is paid for selling on eBay for us. |
|
Our auctions usually last for seven or ten days. Please bear with us if you ask a question - there may be a delay in replying to you, depending on how busy our volunteers are. If your purchase is to be collected, please contact us before turning up at our Centre. We will do our best to accommodate you at a time and day of your choice. UK Buyers - can pay by UK cheque drawn on a UK bank; by UK postal order; by direct bank transfer. You can also pay by Paypal - although as there will be a charge to us for this you might like to consider paying by another method. We prefer cash for local collection items. Non-UK Buyers - you can pay by GBP sterling check or cashier's check. You can also pay by Paypal, but please note that there will be a charge to us if you choose this payment method. We ask you to leave feedback when you receive your purchase to confirm receipt, and we will reciprocate as soon as possible. We would prefer you to contact us before leaving feedback if there is a problem, and we will do our best to resolve it. |
|
|
We will pack your item very very carefully, and we would like you to tell us if something gets lost or arrives broken. Buyer is to pay postage costs, which are quoted on the auction. We will combine if possible if a buyer wins more than one auction. In some cases (valuable items) we will insist on and include insurance in the postage price. We normally post as soon as possible after receiving your payment, but it depends on a volunteer being available to go to the Post Office - please accept our apologies if you have to wait a few days for your parcel. |

Information for charity sellers. If you are considering selling an item, and donating all or part of the proceds to Haworth Cat Rescue, please read this paragraph carefully.............. Firstly, thank you for thinking of us. Please note, the money you donate will be donated to Mission Fish, not Haworth Cat Rescue, and Mission Fish will (after taking a percentage) forward the balance to us.........Mission Fish will take a minimum of £1, even if your item sells for less. They will keep £0.20 and send us £0.80. For higher amounts, Mission Fish will keep 4% of the amount you donate and send the balance to us. If that's ok with you, then it's ok with us too, we just wanted you to be aware of what you might be letting yourself in for.......All auctions run by haworth*Cat*Rescue and haworth-cat-rescue will benefit our charity 100% (less normal eBay fees) - Mission Fish don't take a percentage of these auctions. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE CONSIDERED AS A DIRECT SELLER FOR HAWORTH CAT RESCUE, PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL VIA ASQ AND INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS. WE'LL CONTACT YOU AS SOON AS POSSIBLE......Thank you for reading this, and good luck with your auction.......... |

| About Haworth Cat Rescue | ||||
|
Haworth Cat Rescue operates a rehoming service for unwanted and stray cats and kittens. It covers a large part of West Yorkshire and parts of North Yorkshire and eastern Lancashire. The charity is purely local, run mostly by volunteers, Haworth Cat Rescue receives no head office or central funding, and like all other animal charities is not allowed to apply for lottery or government funding. Many grant-making trusts and foundations also exclude animal charities.
|
|||
| In 1998 we won the Friskies Petcare Foundation Award for the best cat rescue in Britain. | ||||
|
We take in cats for a large number of reasons. Their owners may have died or gone into residential accommodation; they may have become lost possibly as a result of moving house; their owners may have lost their jobs and be unable to afford to keep the cat. There are other - sadder - reasons. The family may have had a child and lost interest in the cat; the cat may have lost its "kittenish" appeal; the family may dump the cat rather than pay for boarding at holiday time. |
 |
|||
|
|
When rehoming cats we take every care that the cat is going to the ideal home. We don't mind if people are poor, old, infirm, live in flats or have other animals. If we have a cat that is suitable for the new home and we feel that it will be happy and cared for there, then we are happy to rehome. We also place feral cats (cats who have been born in outside homes and missed important early handling) in farms, stables or safe factory environments, where they will be sheltered and fed, but not have to cope with people. They pay for their keep by providing an environmentally friendly rodent control. |
|||
|
In order to achieve all this, we have to spend a great deal of our time fund-raising. One of our biggest source of income is by selling goods that have been donated by well-wishers. We sell these at sales and fayres, and are pleased to sell some of the nicer pieces to a world-wide market by using eBay. |
 |
|||
 |
Other ways you can help us include holding sponsored events, making regular donations of money or cat food, telling your friends about us, holding coffee mornings or party evenings - the list is endless! |
|||
|
We also have a Membership scheme, and will be happy to supply details on request. We issue a newsletter about four times each year and will add your name and address to our mailing list if you ask us to. Regular donors may wish to make a standing order - please print off this form, complete it and return it to the address above. This type of donation is extremely useful to us - it enables us to plan, and it is our preferred way of receiving regular donations.
Please please consider making a montly donation to Haworth Cat Rescue - even a couple of pounds per month, if donated by many people, would make a significant difference to us, and wouldn't cost individual donors a great deal. |
|
|||
 |
If you are a UK tax payer, and you intend to make a donation to us, please consider signing a Gift Aid form. If you pay UK tax, a donation of any amount can now be made under Gift Aid, and we can reclaim 25p back on each pound donated under the scheme. It will cost you nothing, but the accumulated amount we gain through this scheme has a significantly worthwhile impact on our income. Please ask for more details if you are not familiar with this scheme. |
