Look What We Made Last Year!

Fish for kitties!!

We’ve made sooo many fish to give to the kitties in the past. Our first year they were bigger than some of the cats we made them for. LOL Each year we learn something new and are glad to be giving back to our community. A big thank you goes out to all of you that adopt and shelter pets in need. It is wonderful that we can be just a small part of that.

Set aside some time to come out Saturday, October 12, 2019 from 11am to 4pm to cut, sew, turn and stuff some beds and toys for our area cats and dogs.

If you are looking for some community service hours for school, this is a wonderful way to fill those hours.
