PET OF THE WEEK
Do you have
a favourite story about your pet that you would like to share with
everyone. Why not write and tell us a little bit about your pet, along
with a picture, and we’ll feature a different story each week. It would
be great to hear from all you animal lovers out there. You can email or
use our mailing address - both can be found on the
home page.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

FUNDRAISING TIPS
Our
shelter is lucky to have some caring youngsters at the local school
working hard to help our animals by raising funds. If you and your
classmates are thinking of getting involved with your local animal
shelter, perhaps you could all put your heads together and come up with
some fundraising schemes of your own. Your school will very likely give
you lots of support and encouragement. Now that Summer is just around the
corner, Yard Sales are a safe bet - perhaps the whole school could get in
on this one. Bake Sales are always popular - there are a lot of Moms out
there who would be happy to help out. How about selling chocolate bars at
break time - you can buy them in bulk and sell for a profit. If you want
to get started and need any advice - just drop us an email and we’d be
happy to help out. Good luck!!

KEEP WILDLIFE WILD
Find out how you can help wild animals
who are facing extinction. The International Fund for Animal Welfare is
organising a special ANIMAL ACTION WEEK from October 2nd to 9th. This
event is jampacked with activities - just visit
www.ifaw.org and check out some of the
great ideas.
They will send you a free Education Pack and video for your class at
school. You could enter the “Design a Calendar Contest” or nominate
someone for a special Animal Action Award. How about ‘adopting’ a wild
animal?. This scheme is completely free of charge and you will get regular
updates.
Don’t wait til October to log onto this terrific site - there is something
fun all year round. Some of the activities are interactive. You can watch
clips from the new “Keep Wildlife Wild” video or take part in the special
interactive quiz.
All animals need our help - so don’t forget the
wild ones.
