Can U Help??
CAN YOU HELP ???
Our local animal rescue centres are in constant need of help, especially during the winter, to provide essential items for the animals in their care – mainly dogs & cats, but also other small animals – that end up on their doorsteps. At the moment they are overwhelmed with needy animals needing car and new homes, and depend entirely on donations to provide medical attention, neutering, food, shelter and care for the abandoned, abused and damaged animals in short and longer-term care.
If you have any old blankets, rugs, surplus dog and cat food, old pet beds, small pet litter etc, please drop them off with us at The Cottage, Scottleton Street, Presteigne (near the Day Centre) or call us and we will collect from you.
All items / donations are gratefully received and delivered direct to our local Rescue centre. Your help makes a real difference !
Call Terry or Christine on 01544 26 06 06 or see the website www.barkingmad.uk.com
