The world of animal rescue is a tough gig. There are late nights and early mornings, and often a million and one thankless tasks that come along with caring for animals awaiting their forever homes.

There Is So Much That Goes Into Animal Rescue

Then there is the expense of not only feeding the animals and providing any necessary veterinary care they may need in addition to their routine vaccines, spays and neuters, but also the cost of maintaining the shelter or rescue facility itself.

Funds Are Almost Always Stretched Thin

The day-to-day operating expenses can leave very little, if any, funds for things like treats and toys for the animals, especially for some of the smaller rescues that don't receive as many donations as the larger organizations.

Join New Hope Animal Rescue for a Virtual Holiday Paw-ty

For one little Kentucky rescue in particular, you can help this holiday season by taking part in their Virtual Holiday Paw-ty! They have been accepting donations of toys for the dogs and cats at New Hope Animal Rescue located in Henderson, Kentucky, and have enough presents for all of the animals!

Donate toys to our shelter dogs! Since they will be spending the holidays in a shelter, instead of a home, we are going to show them how much we care by showering them with all the toys they could ever want.
