Now until November 7th, there is something you can do. Whether you’re a pet owner, looking to adopt, or just love animals. We can all help.
Do you have old towels, blankets or rugs you could donate to provide comfortable bedding for a shelter pet? Leashes, collars, toys, treats are also welcome. In addition, newspapers, bleach and pet food coupons are among the items requested by shelters for the “Presents 4 Pets” program.
Sponsored by The National Association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS) “Presents 4 Pets” collection drive will benefit animal shelters for the fourth year now.

Additional goals include improving the quality of life for shelter animals, increasing their opportunities for adoption and recruiting foster homes for local needy pets.”
To donate, contact a NAPPS pet sitter in your area. Or, by making a purchase online at FetchDog.com, a percentage of your purchase will be contributed to the campaign.
