Animal essentials
- Canned cat and dog food:
We routinely need canned cat and dog food because if we have sufficient for the Village, we pass it to our Foster Families who are looking after our waifs.
- Shredded paper:
We can only use wide strips, not the narrow ones.
- Newspapers, towels and blankets are routinely required for our animals. Please - no electric blankets, because we've discovered that the puppies will pull out the wiring very quickly!

High-Wall
Rubber Footbath to control spread of infection. Sole, sides and welt
