WISH LIST

Do you want to help our animals? You can do so by getting us something from our Wish List. A donation of any of these items greatly helps the shelter. Pick up an item next time you are out shopping or get your business, school or organization to do a collection drive. A representative from the shelter will be glad to stop by and talk to your group. We will also pick-up all the items if needed when the time comes. We always need litter, dry brown cat/kitten food, laundry detergent, bleach, garbage bags and washable toys for our furry friends.
