Blanket Drive 2018

Oh Pupsters it’s soo cold outside with record lows and snow this winter and there are so many pups and kitties that are cold! Did you know there are several kill shelters in South Carolina that have outdoor pens or pens that are very exposed to the outside elements? When puppers get sick they are most at risk for euthanization and we want to save as many lives as pawsible and help them be healthy to find a furever home! So we are having our 2018 Blanket Drive to collect all your unwanted linens, blankets, and more!

Clean out your linen closets and give us your old towels, linens, rags, sheets, pillow cases, and blankets since you got nice new shiny ones this howliday! We are also collecting outdoor tarps for kennel panels to be covered to protect against wind; heating pads, storage totes, insulation, & duck tape fur feral cat shelters; dog and cat beds; dog sweaters, jackets and anything shelters can use! Look below fur a list of items, my amazon wishlist, and drop off locations fur the lowcounty Charleston SC area. You can send gift cards or paypal, checks, etc and we can purchase fur you too!
