HSEC BASIC NEEDS LIST

NEEDS LIST:  ITEMS WE ARE ALWAYS IN NEED OF

We always need MONEY so we can purchase much needed supplies (if they are not donated), effect repairs and help animals in need!! You can contribute via PayPal, telephone credit charge, by mail or just come on into the shelter to drop it off and it truly helps.  But the below donated items help us save our money so that it can be used directly for our animals for everything from vaccinations to surgeries for injured pets.  We greatly appreciate any and all donated items.

• * Evolve Ultra Concentrated Bleach Tablets
• * Liquid Bleach (generic is fine)
• * Fabuloso Liquid Detergent  
• * Liquid Dishwashing soap
• * Non-Clumping Cat Litter (cheap, clay litter best as we discard daily & it is cheaper)
• * Canned Dog/Cat Food (lamb/chicken preferred)

      * The items above are our most used items so we can never have too much.

• Dry Puppy/Kitten Chow
• Plastic Trash Bags – 13 Gal, 30 Gal & 45-55 Gal
• Paper towels
• Toilet Paper (for us humans J )
• Ammonia (used for special kennel cleaning to combat Coccidia)
• Old Towels/Blankets
• Spray Nozzles for hoses
• Heavy-Duty Garden Hoses-50’ & >; ‘for hot water use’ best
• Alcohol
• Q-Tips
• Scotch Tape, Packing/Shipping Tape
• AAA & D Cell batteries for our Microchip Readers
• Vienna Sausages - really helps when giving pills to dogs
• Peanut Butter – also for giving meds and heartworm prevention to our dogs
• Brooms
• First class postage stamps
• Laundry detergent
• Clean Carpet Remnants/Rugs - Prefer them in sizes so that we can cut out 2’ x 2’ or 2’ x 4’ pieces. These really work well in our cat rooms.
• Exercise Pens
• Dog, Cat or Baby Shampoo
• Dog/Cat Crates (all sizes)
• Shredded Paper – we use shredded paper at our Off-Site Adoption Events in our puppy play pens but can only use the ‘long’ shreds as the cross-cut shreds are rather like confetti and simply go everywhere. We hope you understand that we are just unable to use the cross-cut shredded paper.
• Kennel Deck- A sanitary, comfortable surface for dogs in their cages, kennels, runs and more. Click here to purchase

** And don’t forget we take most anything at our Tails End Thrift Store – clothing, furniture, bric-a-brac, appliances, linens, art, books, collectibles, etc.  All donations to our Thrift Store & Shelter are tax-deductible too!  Best times to bring donations to our Thrift Store are Mon, Thu, Fri or Sat from 9-3!
 

Generic brands are fine and greatly appreciated.
