Animal Orphanage participating in Best Friends Pet Care’s annual donation
Local animal lovers can share their holiday spirit by donating food, toys and treats for homeless dogs and cats through Best Friends Pet Care’s 12th annual Animal Angel Tree campaign. All donations will benefit the Animal Orphanage in Voorhees.
“The holiday season is always difficult for our local animal shelters,” said Dina Fowler, manager of Best Friends Pet Care in West Berlin. “This year, Hurricane Sandy has put an even bigger burden on shelters because so many lost and abandoned pets need help. We know our Angel Tree program will make a difference for many pets in need.”
The Animal Angel Tree in Best Friends lobby is decorated with paper ornaments featuring photos and information about needy dogs and cats. Pet lovers can call to select a card from the tree and donate from the shelter’s wish list for that dog or cat. All pets featured on the tree are available for adoption.
Donations to the Animal Angel Tree program can be made at 825 Route 22 West, in West Berlin, or by calling 719–0888 before Dec.31.
The Animal Orphanage rescues and re-homes animals in need. Located at 419 Cooper Road, Voorhees, the non-profit organization is privately run and depends upon private donations. For information, visit www.theanimalorphanage.org.
