  • Sealed dog and cat food & treats (preferably Science Diet dry cat and dog food)
  • Canned Cat, Kitten and Dog food (preferably Friskies pate wet cat food, and Pedigree wet dog)
  • Bleach
  • Bath towels

  • Laundry Detergent
  • Cat toys
  • Paper food trays and small paper plates for cat feeding
  • Newspaper for lining cages
  • Other basic cleaning products and supplies

NOTE: no sheets or comforters, please - our washer/dryer is too small. No supermarket plastic bags -- please bring to your local supermarket to recycle.

To donate items you can drop them off at the shelter during our public hours, or leave by the shelter's front door if we're closed (there's a sign in the window that will direct you where to leave bags or boxes)

Kuranda Beds

You can also donate a Kuranda bed to our dogs and cats. Kuranda beds provide a comfortable surface for our animals to sleep on off the cold concrete floor, while being made with easily cleanable and hygienic materials for use with multiple animals. Donate a Kuranda bed.
