Congratulations to the Fancy Feast Ornament Winners!

Last week on Friday, Fancy Feast did a wonderful thing -- they donated $1,000 to Santa Paws Drive, plus offered to give a free collectible 2012 Fancy Feast ornament to the first 100 people to donate on that day as well!

It was an amazing day for donations. Just amazing. Santa was doing the happy dance all day long!

THANK YOU, FANCY FEAST!

So we are happy to announce the winners of the ornaments below!

We have many of your addresses (if you paid with credit card), but if we don't have your address, please be on the lookout for an email in the next day. We need to hear back from you within 2 days to get the ornaments out to you.

Congratulations to these Santa's helpers (and thank you so much for donating!):

Official Kickoff Pawty Tonight from 8-10 pm EST!


Hello Santa's helpers! Today is #GivingTuesday, and Santa Paws Drive is an official partner! It's a day to give to charities and the less fortunate, instead of buying for yourselves like on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. To raise awareness -- and donations! -- we're throwing an online party!

Join us for our official Kickoff Pawty (a little late, but we wanted to wait until after Thanksgiving!) tonight from 8-10 p.m. EST on Twitter!

Use hashtag #santapawsdrive to join in the fast-paced, wacky, silly, festive fun and win tons of fabulous prizes -- all while helping send shelter animals toys and treats to make their holidays brighter!

To RSVP and get all the info, click to go to the invitation (ALL are invited!).

Pets at home get showered with love and presents for the holidays, and the goal of Santa Paws Drive is to make sure that shelter animals get the same joy and gifts!

Come learn about the shelters we're supporting, meet some of the cats and dogs we'll be sending presents to and mix and mingle with everyone to start off the holiday season!

You better be good and be there! Remember... Santa's watching! 

Can't make the party, but still want to support us? Please donate toys or cash here!
