Support for animals
Support for animals.
We all have a mission, and Vegan Fox 's mission goes far beyond vegan and eco-friendly cosmetics. We aim to do good and inspire others to do the same, so we dedicate our free time and resources to cleaning up the environment and loving animals.
How can you help animals?
Animal shelters are especially in need of support at this time of year, so we encourage everyone who can to help! There are many ways to help the animals living in animal shelters.
Donations that make daily life easier, help reduce maintenance costs or improve the shelter's grounds will be greatly appreciated by shelter staff and residents. These donations include:
- Leashes and neck straps
- Feeding bowls
- Dog food (good quality canned) and treats
- Litter and sand for cat litter trays
- Malka
- Materials for fence repair and shed insulation
- Waste paper
- Dog and cat toys
- Good quality straw
- Blankets, throws, sheets and towels, of natural materials
The list of items needed can change, so we recommend that you contact the shelter staff to find out what donations are currently available before going to the shelter of your choice.
Another way you can help is by working. Volunteer at a shelter, visit the cats or walk the dogs. Although each animal shelter may have slightly different rules for visits, the principle remains the same: anyone who is at least 14 years old and can take responsibility for the animal can walk the dogs.
Of course, the biggest support you can give to shelter residents is adoption. Choosing an animal is a responsible step, so it should not be a spur-of-the-moment decision. You need to carefully weigh up the pros and cons and seriously assess your ability to care for the animal you take from the shelter. Before you decide to adopt a dog or cat from a shelter, ask yourself - Can I give this animal enough time and attention? Will I have the patience? Can I afford it financially? Can I provide a good home? And only if you can answer yes to all these questions can you become a foster parent. Otherwise, your time has not yet come, but that doesn't mean you can't help - you can always make a donation or become a regular donor to support homeless animals in the shelter. Your support will help feed, care for and ensure the well-being of the animals in the shelter.
But if you want to help wildlife, we encourage you to think a little bigger. Become a friend of the fox and help stop cruelty to captive wildlife. Help clean up Latvia's forests and meadows by removing litter from the environment. Adopt an eco-friendly lifestyle to reduce waste that harms wildlife, birds and fish, or support producers who think and care about nature and its inhabitants by choosing their products.
By buying Vegan Fox products, you are also lending a helping hand, as we can do even more good for animals and the environment.
What can you do to promote animal welfare and educate the public on these issues?
- share on social networks to inspire others - for example, a photo of a kitten or dog adopted from an animal shelter
- talking to friends to educate - for example, eggs from caged hens are coded '3'
- support animal shelters - for example, take old towels or blankets to the nearest shelter
- donate to animal advocates - for example, become an Animal Freedom donor.
See you, yours Vegan Fox!
