1,000 pounds to unlock $5,000

Greetings!

Our November pet food drive is ON! Bring your donations of pet food, or mail them to us at 916 West River Road in Brattleboro, VT. Every bag will add up to our goal and help fill hungry bellies.


This year, if we gather 1,000 pounds of donated pet food, we'll unlock a $5,000 donation from Linda and Peter Hoag to help feed hungry pets!


This incredibly generous match is inspired by their beloved dog, Caleb.


Caleb's story:

"We adopted Caleb on September 10, 2010 from WCHS. He was roughly 3 months old and brought in by someone who found him on the Dummerston covered bridge. We fostered him over Labor Day weekend, brought him back to be neutered, he went up for adoption and we couldn't let that happen. 


He was a foster failure but in so many wonderful ways. We couldn't imagine our life without him. He was very personable, taught his mom so much about patience, forgiving, and unconditional love. He became his mom's copilot when traveling, her confidante, and brought a whole new meaning to her life.


Sadly Caleb passed at 11 years of age in his mom's arms. It is through this amazing little dog that Caleb's Cherubs Educational Fund, a tax-exempt nonprofit, was formed in August 2022. Caleb's Fund is all about empowering children to succeed. Individually, through teachers, and classrooms with a STEAM curriculum.  


Caleb wasn't just any dog. He found his mom's heart when she needed it the most."


Thank you so much for donating pet food in November, in honor of Caleb, and all the pets who need us the most.

Calendars are flying off the shelves! Get yours today.

Let's talk about January's photo: the kitten library.


This is a composite photo. The four kittens in his lap was the first photo. Each of the kittens in individual cubes are different photos, and we merged them all together to give the desired effect of a dozen kittens staring down on him.


That's right, no AI was used in our calendar. All the photos are real animals, and real animal heroes.


We had so much fun coming up with creative photos to make our calendar interesting, thought provoking, and of course adorable.


The calendars are a hit so far, and they're flying off the shelf. Don't wait too long to order yours!

You helped us earn $6,250 from Subaru of New England!

THANK YOU to everyone who shared photos and videos of your pets in October! Your cute photos earned us a total donation of $6,250 from Subaru of New England, and that's something to celebrate!


WCHS was one of the 12 lucky shelters in New England chosen to participate. Subaru of New England will donate a total of $75,000 to help animals in our region.


Seeing all your pets made us smile every single day. It's amazing to be part of such a generous and kind community, and we loved seeing many WCHS alums thriving in their forever homes.
