So many
wonderful friends
Thank you so much to those of you who bring supplies
to keep the refuge running.
When you feed and clean up
after almost 1300 animals every day ....
it takes a lot of clean up supplies !!!! Rikki’s Refuge needs 83 gallons of Laundry Detergent per year, that’s
7 gallons a month or about a quart a day !!!
And in the effort to sanitize everything for the critter’s protection,
we also use 1,278 gallons of Bleach each year, that’s 107 gallons a month, or
3.5 gallons a day !!!
If you couldn’t make it out
to drop off a bottle of bleach or laundry detergent over the weekend, but you
can afford to donate one, we’d greatly appreciate your help: http://rikkisrefuge.org/donate.php
