Tips for making effective doorknocking fliers

  • State ‘PLEASE HELP’ up front – it gets people’s attention
  • State that they’re a foster cat (if they are) – people may be more compassionate than if they’re your own
  • Include good photos; include a larger photo on the back
  • Clearly state that they are very timid and not to approach them
  • Include rescue group’s logo, if applicable
