Pet Rock Fest Mission
The
primary purpose of Pet Rock Festival is to educate the general public in a
fun family setting and to promote responsible pet ownership and care.
Pet Rock brings in representatives from all areas of the companion
animal world, including manufacturers, distributors, retailers,
hobbyists, pet clubs, veterinarians, animal care professionals, animal
shelters, breed rescues, and agility / training organizations in order
to provide the pet loving public consumers with the most comprehensive
and exciting event possible.
Pet Rock is the largest expo of its kind on the East Coast. A daylong
family-oriented festival, Pet Rock promotes responsible pet ownership,
brings attention to animal cruelty and educates people on a variety of
animal related issues.

We Need You!
The Sterling Animal
Shelter is still in need of the many items to keep our lovable furry
companions happy and comfortable. For our puppies, dogs, kittens, and
cats:
-
Canned food
-
Rawhide chews for the dogs
and puppies...it keeps them quiet and happy by giving them something
to do with their mouth besides barking
-
Fun toys to play with -
mice catnip, balls, squeaky, plush, nylabones, Kongs (vinyl toys)
are always great!
-
Cat litter - CLAY
unscented (Wal-Mart® sells a 40 pound bag for next to nothing)
-
Warm blankets for our
lovable babies (we would greatly appreciate it if you would cut down
large comforters or blankets to four even quarters so that more pets
can benefit from one blanket and they can be easily washed)
To keep our babies
comfortable:
-
Newspaper
-
Liquid laundry detergent
and liquid hand soap
-
Cleaning supplies such as
extra large heavy duty trash bags, bleach, glass cleaner, etc.
-
Stamps, for mailings!
-
Of course, your financial
donations are always appreciated!

No
bed anywhere compares to the versatility, comfort, value and durability
of Kuranda dog beds. These long lasting beds have set the standard for
what a dog bed should be.

Give Our Orphans the
Gift of Comfort
I would like a warm bed while I am waiting for
my forever home. The floor at the Shelter, although heated during the
winter, is hard. A Kuranda bed
would give me to a soft, elevated bed to lie on during long nights.
Some of my friends already have a donated bed, but I don't have one yet...
