Every animal deserves to be comfortable, including the ones living in animal shelters, waiting to be adopted. Make the animals' cages more comfortable by creating blankets for donations.
Gather your materials.
Collect towels, fleece, or sweatshirts that can serve as blanket material.
Wash them.
You don't want to donate dirty blankets.
Tear 'em up.
Rip the edges of your rectangular or square material into strips.
Braid them together.
Twist three strips together over and over again until you have a visually appealing border. You could also knot each individual strip if you prefer.
Make designs.
If you know how to sew or stitch, create your own designs and borders for your blankets.
Find a shelter.
Call up your nearest location and arrange a time for you to send in or drop off the blankets.
