Wish List

We need volunteers to provide foster homes for animals before they are rehomed! We also need persons with transportation for our spay/neuter programme. So call the Ark at 420-1541 and volunteer your time!

Our Wish-list: These are items that we can always use to help take care of the animals until they are adopted. If you have extra, or if you are coming into Barbados from another country, we would appreciate gifts of:

- We are hoping to acquire a 40 ft container that will be converted for office/reception etc.

- We hope to convert the present 20ft container into a dog kitchen.

- We need donations to assist with the cost of conversion.

- We need a digital camera for the kennels.

- We appreciate donations of CHOW for the animals housed here presently.

- We need towels/bathmats or blankets for dog bedding.

- We need a sit-down lawn mower to keep the land tidy.

- We need a washing machine for dog blankets, bedding etc.

- tick and flea treatments.

- grooming equipment for cats and dogs

- cat and dog carriers, especially collapsible ones

- collars and leads or leashes

We appreciate food, blankets or towels, but we are grateful for any contribution you would be able to make. Please feel free to contact us by email (ark@caribsurf.com) to discuss your gift.

OFFICE EQUIPMENT

We are hoping to acquire a 40ft container this will eventually become our office. The 20' container we presently have will become our dog kitchen. - Most offices have installed multifunction copiers/printers/fax machines, and if they have an unused good functioning fax or copier, this too would be useful. Donations of office products and furniture will also be appreciated.

OUR FUTURE HOME

The Land. We will be seeking the beautification of the area and will appreciate donations of various hardy flowering trees and plants. From time to time we may need a few folk armed with weed whackers to control the grass and weeds. We do plan to beg borrow or buy a few sheep and goats to live on the compound and assist with the grass control. Any offers, give Dorin a call on (246) 420-1541 (please leave a message, if no reply), or email her at dorinboyce@aol.com.
