Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter was established in 1896 and helps thousands of lost, unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned animals every year. Their objective is the promotion of kindness and prevention of cruelty to animals.

They reunite lost animals with their owners and find loving new homes for those no longer wanted. They cover the whole of the North East from their two shelters within Newcastle, Claremont Road and Benton North Farm.

The things they have particularly asked for are:

• Bedding for dogs and cats
• Kitten tinned food and pouches

My target for them is to obtain the following:

• Cash
• Cat and dog food and toys
• Bedding

They have their own website at: http://www.dogandcatshelter.com/html/about_us.html
