Pets at Home Melton customers give generously to Santa Paws appeal
Staff at Pets at Home Melton are celebrating the success of this year's Santa Paws appeal after their efforts helped raise an overall amount of £1,476,668 for abandoned pets in the UK.
The appeal, run annually by the charity Support Adoption For Pets, smashed its target of 2,400,000 dinners and instead raised enough to provide 2,953,336 dinners for pets in rescue centres around the country.
The appeal is now in its sixth year. Of the total money raised, half will be donated directly to rescue centres to help them continue to make a difference in the community.
