Dallas Animal Services needs your discarded newspapers to provide comfort for the cats and other critters in their care. Without donated newspapers, the stray, homeless and often frightened animals must sit directly on the cold, stainless steel cages. Dallas Animal Services goes through a lot of newspaper each day and lately the demand has simply outpaced the supply. And in addition to daily use, Dallas Animal Services' staff members like to keep a stash of newspapers on hand in case of a hoarding or cock-fighting bust where a large number of animals suddenly need shelter and care.
Donating newspapers is an easy, cost-free way anyone can help homeless pets. You can drop off your discarded papers directly at Dallas Animal Services, 1818 N. Westmoreland (I-30 at Westmoreland), Dallas, Texas, or at the Metroplex Mutts adoption event on Saturday, 5/22. The event is this Saturday at the Pet Supplies Plus on Mockingbird from 11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Metroplex Mutts volunteers will collect your unwanted newspapers and deliver them to Dallas Animal Services for you.
