Novi Sad Cats
August 22, 2008 at 4:57 pm (Uncategorized)
“The purpose of Novi Sad Cats is to raise awareness of (and eventually funds for) an independent animal shelter for homeless cats in the Vojvodina region of Serbia. We will also bring you true stories and lots of pictures of these charming creatures.”
Such sad cases but good to know that someone is looking out for them and doing what they can to ensure a future for these lovely cats.

“If the following words describe you — Christian, creative, professional — then it’s a no-brainer: You should be a member of the Christian Fiction Network.“
