Six-Day Effort Raises 100,000 Pounds of Litter For 17 Animal Shelters

MUSCATINE, Iowa, May 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cat lovers from around the country showed tremendous support for felines in need when they voted in a GiveLitter™ charity that raised 50 tons of cat litter for animal shelters across the country.

It only took voters six days to donate 100,000 pounds of World's Best Cat Litter™ to rescue organizations in what is believed to be the largest cat litter donation in history. 

The sixth round of GiveLitter™ allowed animal lovers to visit www.givelitter.com and vote once a day to donate a pound of World's Best Cat Litter™ to their choice of 17 participating shelters. The charity was scheduled to run for two weeks, but reached its goal in only six days due to overwhelming support from more than 65,000 online voters. 

The 100,000-pound donation nearly doubles the total amount raised in five previous GiveLitter™ rounds. The litter donation comes just in time for National Cat Adoption Month in June. Each rescue organization will also receive 50 adoption kits that will help new pet parents eliminate the hassle from their litter box with free bags of World's Best Cat Litter™.  

"The level of support shown by our voters was truly amazing. World's Best Cat Litter™ prides itself on supporting cat owners and shelters everywhere and this GiveLitter™ result speaks to the dedication of our fans," said Paul Zobel, Senior Director of Marking, World's Best Cat Litter™.

Voters nominated the participating shelters and each rescue organization will receive more than 4,600-pounds of all-natural litter. Shelter workers said the charity provides a huge boost for those working to support shelter cats.

"We are ecstatic about the GiveLitter™ round! Our voters are awesome and we so appreciate their support. This litter will help our rescue center tremendously. We are also so appreciative of this opportunity," said Jacci Moss, Director of Friends of Felines' Rescue Center in Defiance, Ohio.
