If an animal can be saved it would make no difference for me whether it is a German cat or a US cat -the important thing for me is

that the organization is good,

that it does not have too many administration overheads,

that they are strictly no-kill,

that they rescue different types of animals (I love all animals but I feel I have to concentrate -so I wouldn't like to donate e.g. to a dogs-only institution (which doesn't mean the dogs shouldn't get all the help they need -but among the many very good purposes on earth I want to choose the ones that are closest to my heart).
