Seasonal
Operation Santa Paws, December 1-21
During the holiday season extra help is needed for abused and abandoned animals in local animal shelters.
One grassroots organization, Operation Santa Paws, is helping by spreading the word about a canine-feline toy or treat drive to benefit less-fortunate pets this season.
Animal lovers are encouraged to purchase a new dog toy, cat toy, food or food treats that will be delivered in time for Christmas to a local shelter and rescue organization.
Think about a sad puppy who knows nobody loves him, a beautiful cat that has lost her family for some reason, or a mature dog that had a loving family until they had to move and could no longer care for him.
On Christmas, a toy or a food treat will make them joyful for the day, and you will feel joyful for making it possible.
