We have done fundraisers with pregnant dogs and cats similar to what you've described, where we will ask people to sponsor a puppy or a kitten and with that sponsorship they get to name them. We include information about what the sponsorship covers, such as vaccinations, spay/neuter (once old enough), food, vet care, etc. People seem to really like it!

Subject: Pregnant Cat Fundraiser
Hello! I am very new to Maddies fund and I am very excited to have found this community! We have always fostered for years but we are relatively new with being a rescue in itself. We just took in a pregnant cat and I had thought about doing some sort of poll to help bring in funds to the rescue. I have thought about making a "Donate X amount and you can guess how many kittens she will have, winner can pick the theme of how we will name the kittens". We had another rescue local to us do a donate a certain amount and someone can name one of the kittens. We can't decide what would go better, or maybe do a variation of both. Has anyone had any experience or tips? Social media is something I need a lot of work on and I want to do better. Excited to hear thoughts and opinions!
