Will you be my Valentine?
LOOKING for the paw-fect valentines date this year? The Mareeba Animal Refuge is inviting pets and their owners to get their photos taken for a donation to the organisation.
The fundraiser will take place at Pets Domain in Mareeba with any pets welcomed to get pictures taken at their photobooth.
Staff member Felicity Pollard said events such as these helped the refuge to fund activities that rehabilitate and rehome pets and maintain the facility.
“Valentine’s day is a great time for fundraising as people are always looking for things to do and we have had great success with our photobooth before,” she said.
“People can bring their pets in and get a photo either on their device or one of ours for a donation. They can donate however much they want to us.”
All animals must be on a lead or safely hand held to get their photos taken.
The photo booth will be open on Saturday 11 February from 10am to 2pm and Sunday 12 February from 10am to 12pm at Pets Domain on Rankin Street in Mareeba.
