Either commercially-made perches or anything folks may have at home that would be sturdy enough to handle the cats jumping and sitting on would be great.

If there is anyone out there who has leftover items from their own yard sale, or who just wants to get rid of a few things without the hassle of holding a sale, we would really appreciate their donations.

The Igloo houses work really well for us...they don't leak and the dogs can't chew them up the way they can wooden houses. Large houses are best...that way it can house a bunch of puppies or one large dog.

We will also be at the Y on April 8, Kids' Health Day, and, as far as I know, we will be at Wal-Mart each Saturday during the spring with some of our puppies and dogs in need of homes.

Leave your name and address along with the estimated value of the items you are donating, and we will see a receipt is sent to you for tax purposes.
