Sometimes when we see a request for a donation we pause ... then tell ourselves ... "someone else will help" ... guess what ... other are doing the same thing ... they're hoping YOU will help ... will you?
Just $17.50 will give a desperately frightened animal in a shelter the small comfort of a Pet Bed ... will you help ... or will you just hope someone else will?

FEATURED SHELTER / RESCUE GROUP ~
SHELTER ON THE HILL (CA)
Candace Huskey, President of Shelter on the Hill wrote to share with us the great text and image going into their newsletter this month:
"As If the Store Isn't Enough .... Another big bunch of High-Five Paws goes out to Thrift Store volunteers Barbara Sioussat and Candace Huskey who, after reading last month's article on "Kennel Beds - Cheap!" combined forces to obtain more of the inexpensive, but oh so needed, beds for the shelter in Lebec. Keeping the shelter's future inhabitants off cold and sometimes wet concrete floors is a high priority for SOTH future shelter operations. The beds are sturdy, washable and inexpensive - only $17.50 each thanks to the National Pet Bed Donation Program arm of Animal Rescue Aid.
Visit them at www.animalrescueaid.org"
"Thank you for this wonderful service!" ~ Candace Huskey ~President

GOT A BIRTHDAY COMING UP?
To bring extra special meaning to her birthday, in lieu of gifts, Stacy Rauch asked her friends & family to donate an Animal Rescue Aid pet bed to Lancaster Animal Shelter (CA) ... She raised enough funds for 65 pet beds for this very grateful group!
Maybe you could arrange a pet bed donation drive, too?! Just pick a shelter and let us know - it's that easy! Your generosity and compassion will make a HUGE impact on the lives of many deserving rescues ... as Stacy said "It was amazing to be able to help them out!"
