Moving forward into 2010




Dear Friends of Peanut Pet Shelter

As we move forward into 2010 we at PPS are committed to a year of more rescue, rehabilitation, medical assistance and loving care for animals in need. For almost 3 years we have taken baby steps, we want to make this the year of giant strides.
Our new Cat Haven is nearing completion and our proposed clinic site is being prepared. If you are looking for a tax break, then please consider a donation towards the building and running costs of the PPS Clinic. We need committed individuals and businesses willing to help us in our battle against disease, parasites, starvation and indiscriminate breeding. If you are interested in donating or raising funds towards this cause, please request one of our info packs by emailing info@peanutpetshelter.org

Rising costs mean that the monthly running costs for the shelter are now in excess of $3,500 u.s. per month:

$2250 Dog, cat & puppy food ($75 per day!)

$600 Shelter land rent

$500 (approx) Veterinary/medical costs

$200 (approx) Miscellaneous (shelter upkeep, generator fuel, disinfectant, water bill etc)

The survival of the shelter depends solely on general donation, fundraising and the sponsorship of individual animals.

Peanut Pet Shelter is a no-kill shelter.

Many of our animals will live out their whole lives never knowing a loving home of their own. They desperately need sponsors to ensure that the healthy stay healthy and the sick are able to receive the necessary veterinary care.

We are urgently seeking people willing to commit to collecting just $1 per month from their animal loving work colleagues for 'Workplace Sponsorships' of individual animals. If you live outside of North America, pesos, pounds, euros or any other currency will be just as gratefully received! All workplaces choosing to sponsor will receive regular updated photos of their chosen dog or cat (available to our current sponsors too) and as a thank you from us, every half-year, the workplace sponsorship 'collector' who has raised the most money will receive a gift of a selected item from the Peanut Pet Shelter online store.

If you and your colleagues are interested in becoming workplace sponsors, or would like to share any other fundraising ideas, please contact us at info@peanutpetshelter.org

Just $1 a month can help save a life!
