@NBCNewYork @lindagaudinoNBC @Jenny_Pierson @NBCUniversal We are so grateful for the media coverage of our proposed programming during a historical tour of Brooklyn Heights by Cats About Town Tours led by Peggy Gavan (author of "The Cat Men of Gotham," @HatchingCatNYC).

The NYC Cat Distribution Network is real! Details at: https://t.co/MEbEkpEl2k. We were inspired by everyone who responds when we get out the word about cats or rescuers in need, and we had this wild idea so we don't gatekeep information from those who need it in service of cats.

We reached our first fundraising goal, but we have so much more to do! Thank you all for your support of the Cat Museum of NYC. We are hard at work registering as a nonprofit. Anything above and beyond will help us make the museum the best it can be. https://t.co/NpI3lyPBD5
