Bring joy to shelter pets this holiday season

This holiday season, let’s come together to make a difference in the lives of our furry friends. Imagine the warmth and joy your simple act of kindness can bring to a lonely shelter pet waiting for a loving home.

Join us for the fourth annual “Presents for Pets” holiday donation drive, hosted by the Miami-Dade Public Library System and Miami-Dade County Animal Services. From November 22 to December 31, 2024, we invite you to spread a little holiday magic by donating cozy blankets, comfy pet beds, delightful toys and tasty treats.

Annette Jose, Director of Miami-Dade County Animal Services, shares, “For shelter pets, these thoughtful gifts offer not just warmth and comfort, but also a sense of hope as they wait for their forever families.”

As you embark on your holiday shopping, consider picking up a special gift for a shelter pet. Your generosity can light up their season and fill their hearts with joy as they dream of the loving homes they deserve.

Let’s make this holiday season unforgettable for those who need it most. Together, we can bring cheer and comfort to our furry companions.
