15 Animal Shelter Donation IdeasHelping Animals in Need

Hey Collectors! Any time of the year is a great time to donate!
Did you know that animal shelters need donations too? Our furry friends in need are not as picky as some of our pets. They would love that cat tree your kitty never uses, or that high end dog food that your dog sniffed once and never ate. Do you have bedding and linens that you can purge? 

I have compiled a list of what most animal shelters will take. My experience is that most shelters even last notice are extremely grateful for any donations.

1. Blankets, Sheets, Pillow Cases (fair to good condition)
2. Cloth towels (fair to good condition)
3. Paper towels
4. Unopened dog or cat food
5. Can openers 
6. Cat litter
7. Pet brushes
8. Pet dishes or small bowls and plates
9. Pet  toys (slightly used is ok)
10. Pens / Pencils 
11. Notepads/clipboards
12. Unopened bleach
13. Cat / Dog crates and kennels 
14. Leashes/Collars (slightly used ok)
15. Tennis balls

Personally, I like to collect a box year round and take it once it gets full. I have pets, and they are spoiled. It's nice to know that the things they don't use can be given to less lucky animals. 

Collector Care takes donations to several local San Francisco Bay Area animal agencies. If you are a Bay Area  animal agency in need of donations, please contact us to see when we are in your area next. rachel@collectorcare.com
