Urgent Appeal: Mainz Animal Shelter Needs Immediate Support

The Mainz animal shelter is calling out for public support as they are experiencing a significant influx of new animals, including cats, kittens, wild animals, and even small hedgehogs. Every day, new hedgehog babies are arriving at the shelter, some of them helpless, underweight, and injured.

To help meet the demand and continue providing the best care for these animals, the shelter is urgently requesting canned food donations for cats. Particularly, wet food from Vet. Concept Urgent Care and lactrase capsules are needed.

For cat and kitten diets, the shelter prefers donations of high-quality canned food brands such as Mjamjam, Animonda, CarnyReal, Nature Wilderness, Edgar & Cooper Pets Deli, GranataPet, and MAC's Happy Cat. Additionally, they are requesting high-meat content kitten dry food with minimal grain additives.

Besides food, the shelter is also in need of other supplies. These include cat litter (clumping and non-clumping), cleaning supplies and disinfectants suitable for animal areas, blankets, towels, and bedding, food and water bowls, toys and scratching posts, medical supplies such as flea and tick treatments, dewormers, and wound care products, cages or carriers for transport, frozen insects, live mealworms/larvae, incontinence pads, cuddle sacks/bags, disposable gloves, and Snuggle heat plates.

The Mainz animal shelter is located at Zwerchallee 13-15, and donations can be made during their opening hours, which are from 8 am to 1 pm and 2 pm to 5 pm. Remember, every donation counts in helping the shelter continue its vital work.

For the most precise and urgent needs, it is recommended to contact the Mainz animal shelter directly via their official website or social media channels. Shelters often have specific requests depending on their current intake and resources.

This urgent appeal has been posted on the Mainz animal shelter's Instagram page, highlighting the need for public support during this challenging time. Let's rally together to ensure these animals receive the care they need and deserve.
