🎉 Celebrate Linda’s Birthday with a Gift for the Cats 🐾

This year, Linda McConnell is celebrating her birthday by doing what she does best — helping cats.

Linda has chosen to support Kim’s Cat Crusade, and we’re honored she’s turning her special day into something that helps homeless cats right here in Pinellas County.

🐱 Why This Matters

Kim’s Cat Crusade provides food and medical care for more than 450 homeless cats in Pinellas County — all cared for by volunteers and supported entirely by private donations. Every dollar donated goes directly to helping cats who rely on us every single day.

And Linda isn’t just supporting this work — she’s part of it.

💕 Meet Linda (and Her Lucky Cats!)

Anyone who knows Linda knows her energy, compassion, and unstoppable drive to help others. After retiring as a nurse from Bay Pines VA, she looked for a way to channel that same passion — and found Kim’s Cat Crusade.

And wow… are we glad she did!

Linda volunteers two days every week (three days every other week), visiting 13 feeding locations and personally caring for more than 70 homeless cats. She feeds them, watches over them, and makes sure they’re safe — and trust us, they adore her. 😻

🐾 A Heart for Fundraising, Too

Linda also goes above and beyond to support Kim’s Cat Crusade through fundraising. She hosted and managed a two-day parking fundraiser at her home during last year’s Green Thumb Festival, and she’ll be coordinating our information booth at this year’s Gulfport Get Rescued Festival.

In short: Linda gives her time, her heart, and her energy — week after week.
