Participants are encouraged to bring items for the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria’s Community Pet Pantry and for in-shelter use, including (unopened) wet/dry food/treats for cats and dogs, kitty litter, puppy pads, pet toys, fleece blankets. They will also have a monetary donation box onsite. Donations will be collected at the Pat Miller Neighborhood Square, located at Mt. Vernon & Oxford Avenues.
