A huge thank you to all of our amazing climbers who took on this year’s Scratching Post Challenge! With your incredible energy, enthusiasm, and heart, you helped fundraise over £3,000 for the animals in our care — and we couldn’t be more grateful. 🙌💛
From beginners to seasoned climbers, every participant brought something special to the day. The atmosphere was full of laughter, encouragement, and determination, all for a great cause.
We would love to take this opportunity to say a special thank you to Matt from the Yorkshire Vet and Joe from Donaldsons, who used their audience and online presence to raise vital funds. You guys absolutely smashed it (we’ll ignore the profanities from the top of the wall 🤣)
Of course this challenge wouldn’t be possible without ROKT Climbing Gym. Thanks so much for hosting us every year, we can’t wait to be back next year taking on the UK’s highest man-made outdoor climbing wall!
Here are just a few of our favourite quotes from this years challenge:
“It was brilliant, and I really enjoyed it! And doing this for such a great cause made it so much easier, knowing it was making a difference to the animals.”
“If being absolutely terrified means enjoying myself, then yes — I definitely enjoyed myself!”
“Loved every second. Can’t wait to do it again next year!”
Every step (and scramble) up that wall helped provide food, medical care, and shelter for the animals we support daily. You made a real difference.
From the bottom of our hearts — and on behalf of every paw we care for — thank you. 💕🐱
