Fans are asked to bring food, blankets, animal beds, puppy pads, cat litter, cleaning supplies, pet toys, treats and more to benefit the dogs and cats who find themselves in Nashville animal shelters at the start of a new year. The donations can be dropped off at the Texas Troubadour Theatre 2416 Music Valley Drive Nashville starting December 12 through December 20 from 10am to 5pm CT.
“The response we got last year was so positive, I just knew we had to make this an annual event!! At this time of year we seem to be more aware of those in need in our community and I felt like this was one area being overlooked,” exclaimed Jeannie Seely! “Not only do these wonderful little animals need and deserve attention, so do the wonderful people who care for them! They work so hard and it’s more difficult when you don’t have what you need to work with. It was so rewarding to see their excitement to not only receive the supplies but to know we all appreciate them!”
Tim Atwood shared, “I know these shelters work hard to find forever homes for these animals, and we want these dogs and cats to be comfortable until that day comes. Our dog Jazz came from a shelter. Every time he looks at us, we see unconditional love. Jazz is family.”
