Cakes 4 Cats

By Jess Targett

I am for animals, and will be raising funds for one of my favourite charities, RSPCA South Australia this August 2023

RSPCA South Australia rescues, rehabilitates and rehomes animals across the state, caring for over 8,000 animals every year. It is the only charitable body responsible for investigating and prosecuting cruelty cases within South Australia, with the small team of inspectors responding to over 4,000 reports of cruelty last year. Their important animal welfare work is almost entirely funded by community donations, and they rely on the goodwill of supporters to continue to be there for animals at their time of greatest need. 

Together we can make a difference in the lives of the animals of South Australia. Thank you!

Help animals in our shelter by donating secondhand items

Sunday 25th Jun

Did you know you can donate the following items directly to the Lonsdale Shelter?

Towels and blankets. These are used to help keep our animals warm and comfortable.

Shredded paper and newspapers. Shredded paper makes great bedding for our pocket pets.

Empty cardboard boxes, cereal boxes and egg cartons. We fill them with treats for our dogs and cats to play with. But please, no plastic or staples.

Empty toilet rolls. Truly! These can very easily be made into enrichment toys for our rabbits, guinea pigs and mice.

Dog and cat collars and harnesses. We go through so many collars, and harnesses for our rescue dogs and cats! We particularly appreciate dog clip collars (rather than buckle).

Wet and dry pet food. Donated pet food, especially cat and kitten food, is crucial to the community outreach work our inspectors and rescue officers undertake each day. We cannot accept open pet food.

Small and medium plastic cat carriers. These are helpful when collecting stray or injured animals.

Cat scratch poles. We pop these in our cat cages so our rescue kitties can have fun and keep their nails in ship-shape. Mini scratch poles are particularly appreciated by our vet team for placing in sick cats’ pens.

Dog coats and beds. These are hugely important to keeping thin and/or sickly dog’s warm and healthy in our shelter, especially during winter. Large and extra-large beds are particularly appreciated. We do often have a stockpile of coats, so please call us on 1300 477 722 before donating.

Litter trays. Used by our cats and pocket pets, we gratefully accept uncovered litter trays.

Flea and worm treatments. We go through loads of these items for all animal types.

Toys, toys and more toys! We’re always after toys that can stand up to a bit of rough play, fluffy toys (they often seem to be a winner with our dogs) and rope toys (great for games during exercise time).
