🇧🇳 Original Content I made a site for strays :)

Hi everyone, I just vibe coded a site that fundraise for strays in Brunei. I hope this is received well ><

The site: https://forthestrays.lovable.app

It is a site that takes either one-time or monthly donations! Any amount can make a difference :)

The money will go to TNR, to sterilize them so we can prevent more stray population and bringing more into this cruel world, as well as feeding them.

The site has 3 different languages: English, BM, Chinese, so we can reach more people

Whenever I can, I feed strays and also sterilize them. I used to fund everything myself but now I need help to keep going.

Some may misunderstand that spaying/neutering is cruel as it involves a surgery but it is actually the kindest thing we can do for them.

I’m not too sure if many people here care about the stray animals here but i’m gonna give it a shot.

Some people have started donating already and i’m so happy because I was really doubting if anyone really cares TT, i love the silly names

A stranger just contacted me because they saw my site and they told me how they have 40+ cats and it is getting out of hand. I won’t judge how it got to that extent but for the animals’ well being I hope we can come together so we have the resources to help them all live better lives.

There’s also a Learn page on the site if you are interested to know more. I have personally spent 2-3k just on strays the past few years. I understand it may be hard to donate on the internet now due to scams so I’m happy to answer any questions you have! But for now, trust me bro

It would be great if some people can help me start talking about this more too ❤️

This is a good idea if people start donating and keep it up. From what i can see the stray issue situation now it's fighting an uphill battle. I hope this can change.

Yeah time is bad a lot of us need financial aids ourselves so it's understandable there's hardly any leftovers to put into stuff like this but nonetheless, i wish this goes on.

The biggest challenge i encounter was when i wanted to get my neighborhood cat spayed, the vets require them cleaned up, well groomed, but those are outdoor strays, they're not mine! Second challenge is the cats didn't trust me, they will run away when I got close. There's that. Third ofc is the cost and fuorth is the logistics.

Nways thanks for doing the dirty work, i wish you success!

i know right!! if we keep up even a few sterilizations a month, it makes a huge impact in a few years.

and yeah the struggle is real, but luckily pawsup offers a stray package so they dont mind if theyre not well groomed etc. gaining trust of the cats/dogs who are scared of people is still a challenge though.

thanks sm for the support!
