Animal Services shelter in need of towels
Lee County Animal Services is in need of large towels for the shelter animals. Towels are used for the animals' care and comfort in their kennels and in the both the shelter and mobile clinics for post surgery care. Animal Services takes in more than 1,300 animals each month so maintaining a large supply of towels is crucial.
Bath and beach towels are the best size and do not need to be new. Anyone interested in donating towels or other items such as cat litter, canned dog and cat food, bleach, Dawn dishwashing liquid, or paper towels, may bring them to the shelter Monday through Saturday during business hours or drop them off at the front door after hours. The shelter is located at 5600 Banner Drive in Fort Myers, next to the Lee County Sheriff's Office.
