The Kaytee Animal Foundation is proud to announce a $25,000
contribution to the Wildlife Hospital Bushfire Appeal for disaster
relief efforts in Australia due to the recent brushfires that
threatened the country’s citizens and wildlife. The funds will be
used to send medical supplies to wildlife rescuers on the frontline
of the fire-affected areas, for the purchase of commercial food
preparation equipment for wildlife care groups, and the purchase
and regeneration of crucial habitats of native Australian birds
including parakeets, cockatiels, and eclectus.
“The concern we share with our fellow animal lovers makes it
vital to assist the Wildlife Bushfire Appeal. We support the
dedication to birds in the wild and other wildlife who are injured,
in need of care and rehabilitation, and may be threatened or
endangered,” stated Todd Regan, GM of Central Specialty Pet.
