This Underground Station Now Has Photos Of Rescue Cats Instead Of Ads

Imagine going to the train station and instead of seeing advertisements all over the wall, you see cats! That is exactly what happened in the Clapham Common station in South London! For the next two weeks, passengers will have kitties greet them as they walk around the station.


James Turner, the founder of Glimpse, said that 68 tube advertisements were replaced with pictures of cats. The cats are featured in different sizes, colors, and shapes.

The people behind the new look at the station are the Citizens Advertising Takeover Service (CATs). They claim this isn’t any sort of marketing stunt.

The volunteers raised money for the project and wanted to inspire people to think about the world in a different way with the help of the Kickstarter campaign.

The hope is that people realize they have the power to change the world. In a press release, Turner said they imagined the world where a public space made you feel good, and they wanted to include something that everyone would love – cats were the answer!

The cats do make the station look more friendly and fun. What is better is that all the cats pictured are rescues from Cats Protection or from Battersea.

All of the pictured cats are up for adoption. Cats Protection’s vision is to have a world where all cats are treated with understanding and kindness.

Battersea has been working since 1860 rehoming cat and dogs. So far, the organization has rehomed over 3.1 million dogs and cats.

Tesco: Ditch palm oil in your own-brand products!

>>>SIGN PETITION HERE<<< My name is Oscar, I’m 15 and I want to do everything I can to protect our environment .  I was really upset and angry when I found out about the huge deforestation that is involved in the palm oil industry,  and that’s why I’m calling on Tesco to ditch palm oil from their own-brand products. Iceland has already banned palm oil from their own brand products, so we know that this is possible for Tesco too. As the largest supermarket in the UK (and using over 40,000 tonnes of palm oil every year!), Tesco has an opportunity to set an example to other supermarkets and food producers that  destroying swathes of forests for palm oil is not acceptable. I run a online cause called ‘Justice4Earth’ ( @justice4earth  on Instagram and  @justice4earth  on Twitter) where I raise awareness about environmental issues. I found out that palm oil is literally everywhere: from shampoos, toothpastes and detergents to sandwiches, chocolate, biscuits a

SIGN NOW! BAN THE SALE OF CRUEL ‘LIVE ANIMAL’ KEYCHAINS

>>> Sign the petition now to tell China to ban live animal keychains! <<< Turtles, fish and lizards are being stuffed and sealed into plastic bags and sold on the streets as keychains in China. The cost of these animals lives? About $1.50. Swimming in a small pool of colored water, the animals only last until the oxygen is used up. Then, they can theoretically be released and kept as pets – although it’s doubtful that the same people who think an animal makes a nifty trinket have the slightest clue about how to properly care for them. In an interview with CNN, David Neale, animal welfare director of Animals Asia said, “Lack of food and diminishing oxygen concentrations within both the water and the small amount of air in these plastic pouches will cause the animals to die in a relatively short period of time after the pouches are sealed.” 😠So Cruel😠 ACTUAL REAL LIVE ANIMALS are being sealed into tiny plastic pouches and sold as f**king keycha

Does The Public Fear Pit Bulls? My Heart Was Torn To Pieces At 1:56.

It’s not uncommon to read or watch content that describes Pit Bull dogs as vicious, aggressive, or dangerous. But the truth is far from that. In reality, a temperament study found that Pit Bulls scored second highest in terms of tolerance. So where does all the unfair bias come from? In an effort to combat these ideas, this YouTuber conducted a social experiment where he walked through the same neighborhood twice – once with a Pit Bull and the other with an Australian Shepherd. The frightened and sometimes painfully, downright ignorant responses to the Pit Bull only proves the upsetting stereotyping against these loving dogs! Take a look at this video It’s important to remember that there are no bad dogs, only bad people. Each individual pup is different and most have nothing but love to give!
