Adoption day success
OVER $600 worth of funds and donations were accumulated, and a puppy was adopted at an adoption day fundraiser that was held last week.
The event was held at FlexiChoice Mareeba to raise money for the Mareeba Animal Refuge while also giving the animals in their care the opportunity to find a permanent home.
FlexiChoice clients spent the day giving love and spending quality time with the animals and enjoyed the sausage sizzle that was on offer.
The event raised $423.70 from the sausage
sizzle and raffle and $200 worth of pet food was donated. Also, Ben, a Kelpie X cattle dog puppy found his forever home.
The refuge will be hosting two more adoption days in October, both held at Pets Domain Mareeba, bringing in animals from the refuge in the hopes of finding them a home.
The first event will be on 5 October from 10am-2pm and for every bag of SavourLife dog food sold on the day, a matching bag will be donated from Pets Domain to the refuge.
The second adoption day will be held on 19 October and will run from 9am-1pm.
It will include fundraising raffles and money boards.
