The COVID-19 pandemic brought many financial and unprecedented challenges for businesses and organizations; however, small non-profits have been particularly affected due to lack of donations.

AlleyCATS, an Okanagan based cat rescue, is not only facing financial issues brought on by the pandemic they are also dealing with the many kittens that are born each spring.

Bosley鈥檚 in Penticton is looking to help the charity out by collecting kitten supplies.

According to AlleyCATS kitten season is always a challenge and this year it is particularly difficult as donations are down and opportunities to showcase pets available for adoption have dropped significantly because of the pandemic.

As the rescue is currently caring for numerous litters of kittens, Bosley鈥檚 wanted to assist them.

During June, Bosley鈥檚 will be hosting Giving Back. Each time a customer buys dog or cat food, treats and flea and tick protection at Bosley鈥檚 will donate $1 to AlleyCATS.

Bosley鈥檚 will also be collecting donations of essential pet supplies such as kitten food and non-clumping litter.

鈥淭he volunteers at AlleyCATS do such important work caring for abandoned and feral cats across the Okanagan Valley,鈥 said Ashley Auger-Patry, Bosley鈥檚 Penticton manager.
