Exactly...local shelters (and especially the animals) really appreciate donations of food, treats, and litters. I ‘earmark’ my donations for cats. :-) NO “SKIMMING” for six-figure administrators...
Before I retired, my employer always gave all of us a large bag of dog food and a large bag of cat food. Mine always went to the local shelter. I still donate used beds, harnesses, and other equipment. If they need food, I’ll donate that too.
Those ads on TV make me mad. I know the animals don’t benefit. Everybody that loves animals should turn it off and donate locally.
