Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
As the Christmas Amazon wish list/shoe box appeal has been such a huge success for the past couple of years, thanks to our supporters kind and generous donations We've decided to run it again this year.
This is where we ask people to donate suitable rabbit or guinea pig items before Christmas and we collect them all up and make up a parcel of goodies for the PaP Rescues. The Parcels will be sent out in December so the Rescues will receive them in time for Christmas.
Basically it will run the same as last year you can either take a look at our Amazon wish list https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/wi ... st_lists_1
and purchase an item/s from it, they will be sent direct to me. Our Amazon wish list can also be found by searching for a wish list on Amazon.Co.UK search for Pledge a Pound.
Or you can collect up several items and send them to me either in October or November, in a shoebox style parcel similar to the photo shown below. If you wish to do this please send me a PM to request my address. Places like The Range & Wilkinsons sell very reasonable dried herbs, treats and willow toys suitable for rabbits and guinea pigs.
Or if you prefer you can purchase item/s from another online retailer, and have them sent directly to me, to save you posting them on, obviously if you wish to do this you will also need to PM me for my address, some online retailers still offer free postage, or free over a certain amount, which of course would be even better if anyone knows which online companies still offer free postage please let me know.
Don't forget whichever online retailer you decide to buy your donation/s from if you go through Easyfundraising first Pledge a Pound will also get a donation as a %age of your purchase, this is free for you and us, here's the link http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/
If you would like to see suitable type items you can take a look at our Amazon wish list, which has been updated this year. The donations must be suitable for either rabbits or guinea pigs or both. This year I am asking for small light items, nothing heavy or bulky in size due to postage costs. NO heavy bags of food, hay bales of any size, litter trays, lazrge tunnels, etc. Items like toys, treats, dried herbs, fleece blankets, medical items such as Panacur, Critical Care, Fibreplex, Biolapis, cotton wool buds etc. would be ideal.
The rabbits and guinea pigs at our Rescues will really appreciate an extra toy or a few treats this Christmas
To ensure there is plenty of time to make up the parcels and ensure the Rescues receive them before Christmas please make sure your parcel will arrive on or before Saturday 10th December.
If anyone has any questions please reply to this post, or send me a PM.
Thank you

Re: Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
Fab, I really hope that more donations start to come in
My heart has joined the thousand, for my friend stopped running today.
Re: Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
Here is a picture of the latest parcel of donations received towards our Christmas Wish List, a fabulous box containing 21 tubes of Panacur 1 each for all the Rescues we support. Thank you so much to the very kind lady who sent them.

Re: Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
Have the Christmas Wishlist parcels been sent out? We received a parcel today that I think may have been our Pledge A Pound gift, but there was nothing in the box to say who it was from?

Re: Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
Same here, a parcel full of bunny treats arrived and I assumed it was from here.
Many thanks.
Many thanks.
Re: Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
Yes the Wishlist parcels were sent out earlier this week, so it sounds like you have both received yours now The address label on the front of the parcel should have said Pledge a Pound Wishlist Parcel on it and also inside the box the label should have said from me (S Gibson)
Hope the bunnies enjoy their treats

Re: Amazon Wishlist/Shoebox Christmas Appeal
See it now on the outside label.
Thank you so much. We are going round a number of our foster carers on Sunday giving out various gifts handed in to the rescue so we will add it to this.
I will try to get photos sorted soon.
