My Shelter Slumber Pawty fundraiser!

Welcome to my Shelter Slumber Pawty page!  I'm so excited to share with you that starting at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 18th, I'll be spending 24 hours side-by-side with a shelter animal at the New Hampshire SPCA's Shelter Slumber Pawty. This means literally hanging out in their kennel, caring for them, and even sleeping on the kennel floor! All to raise funds and awareness of the importance of high quality care in the shelter. 

I'm committed to help every animal find a safe and loving home and will be fundraising throughout the day and night to raise awareness for the lifesaving work of the NHSPCA.

Pets are very important to our family  My husband and I have been married for 49 years.  Almost all of those years have included pets.  Our daughters have had dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish throughthe years.  We had to draw the line when one of the girls wanted to foster a church camp horse for the winter  We had no accommodations for such magnificent animals.  She felt it could share her bedroom!!  My daughters now grown all have pets.  When I retired dog walking for the NHSPCA seemed to be an ideal fit as we had lost our 13yo dog.  I love loving on these dogs!  Last year we unexpectedly lost our beloved Daisee Mae (cat) and I adopted one from the NHSPCA.  I named her Trixie.  She has brought joy and such antics into our home!

My goal is to raise $2000 to support the mission of the NHSPCA, and I need your help. I hope you are in a position to consider a generous gift knowing that every dollar raised will make a difference for homeless, neglected, and abused animals.  Together we will help provide safe shelter, attentive care, critical medical services, and the second chance that each animal so greatly deserves.

I have never done anything like this before.  I am excited to spend time with an animal at the shelter.  Fundraising is the hard part.  I am grateful for whatever anyone is able to donate to such a worthy cause.  I am believing in God to handle it.
