Why we have launched our Unsung Heroes campaign
At Pet’s Delight we are animal lovers first and foremost. Our goal is to provide the very best in nutrition for the pets in the region so that they can live a long and healthy life, and we care about our customer’s animals like they are our own family.
Because of this, we are really affected by the growing stray challenges in the region. We have been supporting K9 Friends for five years now, and have more recently partnered with The Bin Kitty Collective to support cats in the region, too. But it’s not enough, and although we’re unfortunately not able to contribute to every animal group in the UAE, we do have a platform to raise awareness of them and to show people how they can help as well.
We have a magazine, a good social following, seven shops across the UAE, and lots of customers who we know care just as much as we do. So what did we do?
We asked around, and people started telling us about individuals they know who are doing incredible things to help the stray challenge, with little or no thanks or support.
We picked up our camera, jumped in the car, and went to interview some of them.
First, we met the K9 Friends Kennel team, who have been working for the group for many many years. We spoke to them about their jobs, and some of the challenges they face everyday. Then, we joined Fawaz (an animal activist who feeds around 600 cats every week) for an evening feed.
For us, this was an extremely eye opening experience, which is why we are continuing our Unsung Heroes campaign and asking for you, our customers, to nominate people who you think deserve some credit for all that they do.
If you would like to nominate someone to be a part of our Unsung Heroes campaign please email us on info@petsdelight.com.
By shopping with us, you’re helping us support K9 Friends and The Bin Kitty Collective, thank you.
