I just saw the devastating disaster that recently happened in Nepal on the news again and how devastating it is to the community. There's a CTA to donate at the end and I thought maybe I can try donating the remaining balances of my prepaid cards?

Turns out it worked! ($1 donation minimum)

If you have small leftover balances on prepaid credit cards that would otherwise go unused, you can put them toward a disaster relief instead of letting them disappear into the ether.

I just donated to the Nepal relief fund, but you can donate to any causes you choose.

From me:

• Sand litter is the worst. It tracks everywhere and creates a lot of dust. I found pellets to be the most manageable
• A litter robot is nice, but unnecessary unless you have a lot of cats
• A robot vacuum, on the other hand, is very helpful for keeping pet hair under control
• Placing an air purifier near the litter box helps reduce odors
• Wand toys, multiple scratchers (unless they want the furniture to be the scratcher), and a cat tree facing the window
• An effective pet hair brush, like furminator (maybe depends on the kind of coat).

These are all pretty simple things, but they genuinely improve a cat's quality of life, not just make things easier for the person taking care of them.
