The cats and dogs, puppies and kittens at the shelter need blankets for beds. A soft, cozy blanket does so much to reduce the stress and give comfort to those in kennels waiting to be adopted.

If you have blankets or towels (sheets, small comforters, and quilts are helpful too) you no longer need, our animals would love to hear from you. The items do not have to be new, but we’d appreciate them being clean. Please note that we are unable to use pillows, clothing, foam, or carpeting.

You may brings blankets, etc. to the shelter (1805 E. 19th Street) or drop them at the red bin in the Petco parking lot (3115 Iowa). If you belong to a group that would like to do a blanket drive for the animals, please contact us at 785-843-6835—we are happy to make arrangements with you to pick up donations from your drive.
