Kitty Angels Benefit at Treasures, Antiques, Collectables & MORE in Amherst, NH

Amherst, NH – Treasures Antiques, Collectables & MORE! will once again, be the place to be on the weekend of May 5th & 6th, as preparations are underway for their annual Kitty Angels Fundraiser and adoption days. This event, which has grown every year, will run both days from 9AM to 5PM rain or shine.

Last year's event gathered 130 amazing vendors who jammed the grounds surrounding Treasures in an entertaining flea market, yard sale and county-fair type atmosphere. Chapanga's Griddle & Grill of Milford, NH and Lil' Iguana's from Nashua will be on hand this year to offer a variety of lunch and snack items and Starbucks Coffee Company of Amherst Street in Nashua will supply the coffee. Skilled artisans & crafters, a psychic, a palm reader and a whimsical face painter are among the many other attractions. Along with the various "yard sale" items that can be found, you'll be guaranteed to find something for yourself, your pet, your home, or your garden sanctuary including jewelry, baked goods and other foods, candles, soap, florals, sports, clothing and much, much more. Also attending the event will be representatives of the Amherst Animal Hospital, who has done so much for Kitty Angels over the last 20 plus years by taking care of hundreds of the worst case kitty patients; some mangled or critically ill and given them a second chance at life. Last year alone, they treated almost 200 cats from Kitty Angels. They will be available to explain their services and to answer any questions you may have concerning the kitties or any other pet/animal. A fun and educational petting zoo, including lambs, sheep, turkeys, chickens and even goat rides, will be brought to you by the "Mythical Noble Hill Farm" of Pepperell, MA., always a big hit with the kids (of all ages!) Be sure to meet MARSHMELLOW, too!!

Want to make some money at the event? A "Cash for Gold" representative will be on site to do that for you! All you need to do is bring your unwanted gold and get cash on the spot.

Raffles will be featured throughout the fundraising weekend. Last year's event offered more than 65 different prizes and was valued at over $4400! We are hoping for even more this year!

This annual fundraising event for "Kitty Angels, Inc." is the "pet" charity of Treasures' owners, Rick & Sherry Tobin. To date, their fundraising efforts have far exceeded $25,000. Kitty Angels, Inc., a no-kill cat shelter made up of all unpaid volunteers, is dedicated to rescuing stray and abandoned cats and furnishing them with treatment for injuries or other health issues. The cats are then placed into life-long, loving "forever homes" with compatible owners. All the necessary steps are taken to insure the well being of the cats, including screening for infectious diseases, spaying and neutering, providing rabies, distemper and other necessary vaccinations. They are a non-profit, charitable corporation where all donations are fully tax-deductible and every penny of every donation is used in the caring of cats. If you'd like to make a donation through Treasures, but can't come to the event that weekend, you may send a check or money order made out to Treasures (with a note in your memo section: "Kitty Angels, Inc."). The address is Treasures Antiques, Collectables & MORE! 106 Ponemah Road, Amherst, NH 03031.

If you can't make a monetary donation at this time, but would like to help, material donations will be happily accepted, such as postage stamps, cat food (both dry and canned), kitty litter (non-scoopable preferred, but any litter is good litter), medical supplies, bedding (clean towels, blankets, quilts, clean denim and corduroy, quilted bedspreads), carriers, cleaning supplies including bleach, laundry detergent and paper towels, photocopy paper, cat toys and cat furniture as well as trash bags.

This popular, annual fundraising event will not only benefit the kitties, but will provide you with fun, bargains, food, ideas and knowledge. You PAWSITIVELY have to attend. Hopefully, you can adopt a new, life-long, forever-friend as well.
