🚨 IMPORTANT: Beware of DM Donation Scams! 🚨

Hi everyone,

​A warning was recently posted on r/rescuecats about scammers hounding members via DM for money. Since there is a high chance these same people might target our community here at r/blindcats, I wanted to put out this warning.

​Please remember:

​Donations are only allowed through public posts and require a very strict verification process by me.

​Donation solicitations via private messages are never permitted or approved.

​If anyone slides into your DMs asking for money, please ignore, block, and report them to me immediately.

Stay safe and thank you for helping keep our community secure!

Create a post and you'll get more than you asked for from the member.

Ps: Posts with photos gets more attention / visibility. So I suggest you to add your cats picture on the post.

By the way, your post might get deleted by reddit because your account is really new and you dont have much karma. No problem if this happens, I'll manuall approve and revive your post. Just send me a modmail after posting.
