&lt;p&gt;I would guess then you would consider different types of owners perhaps? Such as those who are farmer types for instance who may keep farm/feral cats with a sole purpose for keeping rats/mice to a minimum may hold intrinsic value for a cat as being low in what we would consider &amp;#39;ideal&amp;#39; ownership to be. Although the job they do is important to the farmer, if the cat became ill would it receive the kind of treatment a &amp;#39;normal&amp;#39; pet cat would? &lt;img src="http://www.vetnurse.co.uk/emoticons/new/Thinking_smiley.gif" alt="Thinking" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I would just approach feline friendly companies...maybe ceva, novartis etc or just speak to reps you know really really well and con them out of it!!! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;hills/rcw may be willing to sponsor you as purina were originally gonna sponsor me for the cert san at telford (which is hills biased!) they only gave me &amp;pound;100 but put that with the &amp;pound;250 i get from work and i have only had to pay &amp;pound;90 for the course.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;makes me glad i am speaking at congress and get all my stuff free and i am an rco so get bvna as well!! &lt;/p&gt;
