MIAMI (CBSMiami) – When shopping for your gifts, consider picking up an item for Miami-Dade’s homeless pets to help keep them playful and entertained this holiday season.

Miami-Dade County Animal Services has teamed up with the county’s library system for their first annual Presents for Pets donation drive.

The county said pets in their shelter need blankets, pet beds, treats, and toys to help keep them warm, comfy, playful, and entertained while they wait for their fur-ever families this holiday season.

Additionally, these gifts help provide needed supplies to ‘pet parents’ taking care of the shelter animals in the foster program.

“The gifts collected will provide our shelter pets with entertainment and enrichment as well as a sense of security as they wait to be adopted by their fur-ever families,” said Bronwyn Stanford, Animal Services Director.

Donation bins will be available at the Animal Services Pet Adoption and Protection Center at 3599 NW 79 Avenue in Doral and at the Stephen P. Clark Center at 111 NW 1st Street in Miami.

Donation bins will also be available at the following library locations:
