AS “LNK Industries” and the “LNK Charity Foundation”, in cooperation with the Cat Rescue Centre “REMI”, are launching a new charity project, “Tince’s House”, within the framework of which 100 insulated wooden shelters for stray cats will be produced and installed throughout Latvia over the course of a year. The aim of the project is to provide safe shelter for cats forced to live without protection, while also encouraging social responsibility and a humane attitude towards animals.
The shelters will be insulated and adapted to Latvia’s climate conditions, providing protection during frost, rain, and summer heat, while also creating a safe place where cats can rest and sleep. The shelters are intended to be placed in courtyards, industrial areas, allotment gardens, and other locations where stray cats live alongside people. They will also help create a cleaner and more organised environment by establishing local, controlled feeding points for cats.
The project was inspired by the story of a little cat named Tince, who was found outdoors during winter in critical condition because she had nowhere to shelter from the cold. Tince’s tragic fate highlighted the urgent need for safe and permanent shelter for stray cats and became the symbol behind this initiative.
