Good afternoon Facebook friends and family! This holiday season me and a few friends want to give back, not to our Human friends. But to our 4 legged friends. Many shelters are full of animals, like Sams Rescue in Hanna City, IL. They currently have 16 dogs and 45 cats at the shelter. They also have about 50 cats in foster homes. So I’m hoping that you guys could pitch in a little bit, my friend and I are collecting donations for local shelters. We have 9 shelters we want to help out this season. I’ve been to everyone of these shelters and guarantee that these animals are very loving. Answer me this, If you were an animal would you want to be kept in a kennel all day and let out to go outside, with a bunch of other animals? Or would you want to be home with your family in a warm home getting lots of love and attention? I would want to be at home with my family and I hope you would to! Personally I would adopt every animal I see if I could, But I just can’t.
My friends and I are going to go around town and two the surrounding towns and ask to put a donation bucket in their businesses. With shelters being full it’s hard to keep up with everything, all the food, Medical costs, and many more things these animals need. I have a list of things animal shelters NEED, if you can’t give some of these items please donate a few dollars. Everything will help make sure these animals are happy and healthy!
