Annual donations request

Here is our annual request for donations! If you would like to make a donation to help support the forum, however small, then this can be made via the paypal link below - to the forum's paypal account. In return you will receive a special purple banner under your name for the next year (example in photo below although obviously I won't be getting a banner!). If you have joined to read the articles, and found them helpful - a small donation would be appreciated. There is also a thread on the forum where you can post any questions, linked below.

The site is non-profit-making and a global forum for Hamster owners - our care guides reach many people.

Please put your username as a reference when paying by paypal, so I know who to give the banner to! If you forget you can post below or on the forum thread linked below.





The donations request is a bit earlier this year - the first main bill isn't due until early October, so I'll keep the donations option open until late September. Everything will be renewed and the site continuing - however your donations will help

Some additional one-off, up-front costs have already been paid this year, for necessary upgrades re the online safety act. Even so, the annual renewal fees are still higher than last year due to software renewals due over the coming year: Approximately £635.25.

This sum includes:

Server/hosting plan
Email plan
Software licence renewal
AI content moderator renewal
Software addons for functionality and security (and renewals)
Image subscription plan

In terms of income from affiliate links – the grand total of income so far is approximately £3 . The affiliate links are quite recent, so I’ll see how much they make over the next year, which might help towards the bills for the year after.
