Star Paws Stray Cat Project
Code: MTV 02 | Location: Indonesia
Should not have a cat allergy
Star Paws is a sociopreneur business that works on the animal issue, especially cats.
Some people just ignore the existence of stray cats in their neighborhood or even see stray cats
as pests. They live in the traditional market, housing area, and also the streets. Often, we find
kittens being dumped inside a box on the street and in the traditional markets. People just don't
want to be bothered by the newborn kitten and think that dumping the kittens in the traditional
market will solve the problem. In fact, almost all kittens die instead of surviving. It is not different
from slowly killing them.
Description of the Work
This project focuses on two main activities. Raising awareness of local people against animal abuse, spreading the message to start doing good things for stray animals around us.
