Animals in Need Donegal (AIN) has launched the annual Santa Paws Pet Toy Appeal. Each year, AIN run an appeal to collect toys for all the fostered animals with the aim that every dog, cat, pup and kitten will have a present on Christmas day and spare toys throughout the year.

Donations can include pet toys, blankets and cat/dog food and they can be dropped off at collection points located in Pets’R’Us, SoLo and AIN’s Charity Shop in Donegal Town.

Online donations can be made via AIN’s Amazon Wishlist which is packed with present ideas in all price ranges. All donations, however big or small, are gratefully received by the animals while they wait for their forever homes. 

AIN is a non-profit charity based in Donegal Town that rescues stray, injured and abandoned pets. To help the animals, please donate €2 to AIN’s ‘Help Us To\ Help Them’ fundraising appeal by texting the word ‘KITTEN’ to 50300. 

Every last cent goes directly to the rescued animals for their food, bedding, vet bills, worming treatment and vaccinations. For further information on adoption, fostering and volunteering, please contact the main helpline on 087 1356188.
