Scottish SPCA urges locals to donate blankets to help animals in care at their Lanarkshire centre

Animal lovers are being asked to donate blankets for animals at the Lanarkshire Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre.

The Scottish SPCA are urging locals to order the bedding materials to keep animals in their care cosy until they find their forever homes.

They can be purchased from the centre’s Amazon wish list or via any other online retailer offering direct delivery to the Hamilton centre.

Items can also be dropped in to the centre reception daily between 1pm and 4pm.

Scottish SPCA Centre manager, Gillian Boyle, said: “We are in need of blankets to keep animals like Butch [pictured] cosy in their kennels.

“We are appealing for good sized, thick blankets but are unfortunately unable to accept donations of duvets.

“If an animal rips a duvet this can be a serious choking risk.

“Blankets will help keep Butch and the other animals in our care warm and comfortable until they find their forever homes.

“We are so thankful for your support so that we can continue to provide the best possible care for the animals at our centre.

“We’d be so grateful for any donations that people can spare.”

Blankets can be donated via the centre’s Amazon wish list here, or sent from another online retailer that can deliver.

Items can also be dropped in to the centre reception daily between 1pm and 4pm at Scottish SPCA, Bothwell Rd, Hamilton ML3 0SB.
