Our kennels are bursting with hungry kittens and adult doggies waiting for their tummies to be filled.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWith the season changing, we\u2019re running low on blankets, and our fur babies are shivering in the cold kennels,\u201d they wrote on their social media platforms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The organisation further explained they are in urgent need of blankets and washing powder to maintain cleanliness and comfort for the animals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some of their other needs include Catmor kitten pellets, adult dog pellets, automatic washing powder, and Stormy blankets (available from Pep).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Donations can be dropped off at 1 Schonland Avenue, Kruisrivier, Kariega. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYour support means the world to us and our furry friends.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
