"For years Boppy fans have sent us photos of their beloved pets enjoying the comfort of Boppy products," said Nancy Bartley, CEO of The Boppy Company. "In addition to loving babies, our Golden team loves pets too.  We are delighted that we can share the Boppy love with the Foothills Animal Shelter so that these orphaned pets can be comfortable as they transition to their forever homes." 

The Foothills Animal Shelter, also located in Golden, cares for 9,300 orphaned pets each year. The donated items will be used by the Shelter's Foster Care Program to provide comfort and support to their neediest animals. The program is supported by 185 volunteers who open their hearts and homes to provide loving care to nearly 1,000 pets each year, including those too young to be adopted and pets recovering from illness or surgery.  "The colorful and comfortable Boppy pillows and mats will make cozy beds for our foster animals," says Heather Cameron, Executive Director of Foothills Animal Shelter. "They'll be put to great use with some of our youngest and most fragile pets. We are so appreciative Boppy thought of Foothills Animal Shelter and the homeless animals in our community."
