If you know how to sew, feel free to bring your own sewing machine, but not required. Non-sewers will create tied blankets and dog/cat toys!
Donations of fleece, old t-shirts are welcome! Other items suggested are men’s tube socks and rice. We make rice socks and use them as a heat source for neonatal puppies and kittens.
This is an open event, everyone welcome! Minimum age is 8 (must know how to braid, tie, and stay on task). Volunteers ages 15 and younger MUST have a parent with them.
Learn more about the national Comfort for Critters non-profit and their mission here: https://comfortforcritters.org/. The blankets and toys created at this event will directly benefit the pets being cared for by San Antonio Animal Care Services!
