All Call SOS to Seattle-Area Agents: Help the Animal Shelter!

If you all know me by now, you know that I care a great deal about the community I live in, and that I love my kitties, who were both rescued from shelters.

The Seattle Animal Shelter recently had a huge dryer fire at their facilities on 15th Avenue, causing them to lose a lot of their stock of textiles to help comfort and pad the temporary homes of the cats and dogs there. I realize no one may be able to donate a new commercial dryer to them, but they are asking (nigh, begging, pleading, with scores of big, sad puppies with big, sad puppy-dog eyes) for donations of towels and blankets to the shelter to restock.

Luckily, they didn't lose any actual animals during the fire, but some had to be relocated to foster homes for the time being, due to lost space and cleanup.

If you are in the Seattle Area and you can send (by post) or drop off donations, please do! Here's the info:

Address: 2061 15th Ave West, Seattle, WA 98119
Shelter Hours: Monday-Sunday, 12:00-6:00pm, Closed for Holidays
Telephone: (206) 386-PETS (7387) main / (206) 386-4285 fax

I'll be taking a load over there myself - my towels have seen better days, but I'm sure there's a puppy out there who would rather lay on it instead of a bare kennel.
