Saving the Scottish Wildcat- the rarest cat in the world

The Scottish Wildcat is one of the rarest animals in the world; there are only 35 of them left on earth. A third of them live in the publicly owned Clashindarroch Forest in the Scottish Highlands, but they are in danger from logging by the Scottish Government’s Forestry Commission Scotland. If this doesn’t stop immediately, the wildcat will become extinct. 

We can stop this, but we need your help to raise the funds to carry out the following actvities: 

  1. Enforce national and international protections of the wildcat.
  2. Establish special designation for the site so the forest can be conserved indefinitely.
  3. Stop wildcats being taken from the wild by the government to be put in zoos. 

Please help us to save the magnificent widlcat in the wild where it belongs.

These beautiful cats should be left to live in their own habitat and not have fear from humans destroying it. I support what Wild Cat Haven do and want them to continue to protect these wonderful animals.

The people working to save the wildcat provide great communication and clearly love their mission, which I wholeheartedly support.

The Scottish Wildcat are sentient beings and a national treasure of the British Isles.

It's totally insane that this wonderful creature is on the brink of extinction, and that the UK/Scottish governments are actually participating in its decline. I am also contributing because I currently live in Sweden, and unfortunately it is the huge Swedish energy company "Vattenfall" (which presents itself in Sweden as a company with high environmental concerns and credentials) which is building the windfarm and destroying the Wildcats' habitat.
