‼️🐾 URGENT PLEA FOR GOOD QUALITY ADULT DOG FOOD 🐾‼️

We hate having to ask 😣 but sometimes we reach a point where we just have no choice but to. Our rescue doggies are almost out of food… We only have one week’s supply of adult dog food left, and more mouths to feed are arriving on a weekly basis. These beautiful souls have already been through so much, the least we can give them is a full tummy and the comfort of knowing they are cared for 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

If you’re able to donate GOOD QUALITY adult dog food (Montego Classic is the most affordable while still being of good quality🐶) it would mean the world to us - and even more to them 🥺💜

📍 Donations can be dropped off at the locations on the poster
📞 For any questions or collection options, WhatsApp us on 0605821771 or 0833871012 or email us at [email protected]
🏦 You may use the below Banking Details if you prefer to make a monetary donation. We can also issue 18A Tax Certificates.

Any and all donations (no amount too small!) can be made to-
Kitty and Puppy Haven
Nedbank, Cheque Account
Sandton City
Acc No. - 1970845082
Branch code - 197005
Reference - Adult Foodies

Please share and help us spread the word. Together, we can keep tails wagging and bowls full 🥰
