Rats and dogs! Charities make for family fun day
CavyRescue – the Kent based charity for small ‘furries’ –
will be having a stall at the Dogs Trust Canterbury annual Fun
Day on Sunday 13th August – and want you to stop by and visit
their stall to help them raise much needed funds.
The UK’s first dedicated rat rescue charity, who rescue, rehabilitate
and rehome rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and rats etc will
be selling at trade prices and raffling off a range of pet products
such as cages, food and accessories as well as giving out invaluable
information and advice on pet healthcare and welfare.
Stella Hulott from CavyRescue says: “Attending such a high
profile event as the Dogs Trust Canterbury Fun Day is a great
way for us to raise awareness of CavyRescue as well as raise
funds for our planned small animal hospital and sanctuary.”
The Dogs Trust event – which also will have a Fun Dog Show
- runs from 11.00am until 4.00pm in the field opposite the Rehoming
Centre on Radfall Road, Chestfield, near Whitstable, Kent CT5
3ER. Entrance to the event is only £1.00 for adults, 50p
for under 16s/OAPs, and dogs go free! Parking is also free.
Sarah-Jane Honeywell from CBeebies Tikkabilla will be part
of the judging panel for the charities Fun Dog Show.
Lizzie Reffell, Dogs Trust Canterbury Rehoming Centre Manager,
comments: “We can promise a great day out for all the family
whether they have two legs, or four! There will be all sorts
of activities to keep everyone occupied and amused – there will
definitely be something for everyone at Dogs Trust Canterbury’s
Fun Day!”
Stella agrees; “Not only will this be a fun day for everyone
whether they are two legged or four legged but it will raise
funds to help abandoned and abused animals in the Kent area.”
