Norwegian Forest Cat HCM DNA Research Project

Our International Raffle was conducted Spring of 2009 and we raised $1,252.00!
As the group celebrates its 3 year anniversary, we are pleased to launch our 5th fundraiser with an International theme to highlight the increase in worldwide awareness of HCM. We are thrilled to see the increase in HCM screening, and it is inspiring to see so many breeders around the world working together to fight this terrible disease.
A huge thank you for all of the wonderful donations we received from individuals and clubs in the US and Europe! We are thrilled at the opportunity to offer a wide variety of items and it is all thanks to those mentioned below!
All proceeds were donated to the Winn Foundation towards the
Norwegian Forest Cat HCM DNA Research Fund!!!
