CDERT to the Rescue! You can help too!

Cat Depot's Emergency Team is deploying to assist ASPCA in dog fighting raid. Found out how you can help!

Cat Depot’s Emergency Response Team (CDERT) will deploy September 22 at the request of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals® (ASPCA®). CDERT will help care for hundreds of dogs rescued in a multi-state, federal dog fighting raid – the second largest dog fighting bust in United States history. 

How Can You Help? 

Cat Depot is asking everyone to help fill their rescue trailer with urgently needed supplies. Items needed are: blankets, towels, paper towels, individual bottles of water and Gatorade, individually packed snacks (granola bars, chips, crackers, nuts, candy, jerky, cookies, etc.), clipboards, peanut butter, gift cards to Home Depot, Lowes or Wal-mart, and ASPCA-approved dog toys and treats. Donations can be dropped off at Cat Depot through Saturday, September 21 until 4:00 p.m. 

Donations are needed to assist Cat Depot with emergency response costs, and volunteers are greatly needed at Cat Depot the week of September 22-29. If you can help with cat care and cleaning from 7:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., please contact Cat Depot, or call (941) 366-2404.
