Spain-based deeptech and climate megafund Kembara has just completed a 750 million first close toward its 1 billion target.

A kitten spotted in the cold, hiding under a deck, began to change when he was given a chance to become a house cat. Whiskers-a-GoGoLeanne, a dedicated volunteer with Whiskers-a-GoGo, was on a rescue mission to help a colony of cats living in a neighbor's backyard.With freezing temperatures setting in, a black-and-white kitten had taken shelter under the deck with his two siblings. Leanne and her team set humane traps near a small opening in the fence, using food to coax the kittens to safety."Finally, they found their courage (and hunger) and ventured into the yard with the traps," Leanne told Love Meow. Whiskers-a-GoGoThe kittens were terrified, hissing and growling as they tried to protect themselves the only way they knew how. On the drive to the spay/neuter clinic, their hisses faded, replaced by tiny, tentative meows. Leanne knew immediately that these kittens had potential and deserved a chance.The little one with cow-like markings was especially displeased, unaware that everything was about to change for the better. Whiskers-a-GoGoWhen Delilah, a foster volunteer, met the kitten, she was instantly smitten. "He is so rotund and cute and looks like a Beanie Baby. I decided to give him the most ridiculous, reactionary name ever: Gosh Darnit," Delilah told Love Meow.To begin socializing him, Delilah gently wrapped him in a towel and held him close. His eyes darted nervously, his heart pounding out of his chest, but soon, his defenses began to soften. Whiskers-a-GoGoWorking through the initial squirming and hissing turned out to be much easier than expected. "I would put him in a burrito and sing to him very cheesy 1980s rock songs. I think singing helped him relax and get more acquainted with humans."A steady stream of kisses, cuddles, and treats did the trick. Within a few days, he was completely won over. Whiskers-a-GoGoOnce he realized he was safe and that his foster mom was kind, his true personality began to shine. He explored his surroundings, claiming everything he touched. Curious, he wanted to be part of whatever was happening."Nothing seems to faze him now, and I can't even remember him being scared or grouchy when I think of him." Whiskers-a-GoGoWhile the kittens continued to thrive in foster care, the adult cats were spayed or neutered and returned to the backyard they had called home. They now have access to a heated shelter and a dedicated caretaker who ensures they are fed and safe.No longer the hissy little jalapeno he once was, Gosh Darnit transformed into a tiny supervisor. He perched on the piano keys, as if offering himself as a muse or insisting on being involved in the creative process. Whiskers-a-GoGoAs his confidence grew, so did his voice. Even as a small kitten, he was chatty and loud, announcing his presence wherever he went. "I never had trouble finding him because he loves making his presence known.""He's a perfect cat. His only 'flaw' is his love of playing 'broken neck' when he sleeps." Whiskers-a-GoGoWhen it came time for adoption, Gosh Darnit didn't have to wait long to find his perfect match. "We had more than a dozen applications for this little grouch," Leanne shared."He's doing really well in his new home and gets along beautifully with his new sibling." Whiskers-a-GoGoThanks to the tireless efforts of the volunteers, the kittens were given a second chance at life. They will never again face the cold or spend another day outdoors. Their future is bright, filled with warmth, comfort, and love.The moment Gosh Darnit spotted a big, soft blanket in his new home, he hopped onto the bed and claimed it as his own.
