Rats recycle rubbish

- May 14, 2006 - CavyRescue - the UK"s first dedicated rodent rescue charity - is asking the public to help them continue their work with abandoned, abused and unwanted small furries by turning their old "phones and used printer cartridges into much needed funds.

Stella Hulott, co-founder of CavyRescue says: "Many people throw out their old "phones without realising that they could be put to good use. At the rescue - where our annual bill is around 16,000 - we can recycle them to help raise funds for the shelter. For example, even just one person saving an old mobile "phone for us to recycle will pay for enough bedding to last a week!"

Stella adds: "It couldn"t be easier to do. Simply email, text or "phone through your address to us and we will send you a Freepost bag in which you can put your "phone and then send off for recycling. For companies, collection of used "phones and printer cartridges can be arranged at no cost.

She adds: "It doesn"t even matter if the "phone no longer works, it can still be recycled. It won"t cost you a penny to do but will help us to save lives"

CavyRescue was set up in 1999 and has rescued, rehabilitated and rehomed over 1,600 small furries (guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, gerbils and rats) via the shelter - which is run from home - and its website. Its aim is to educate individuals and organisations on small animal healthcare and welfare and they regularly run successful campaigns to this effect.

If you have an old mobile "phone or used printer cartridges that you no longer want and would like to help the rats to recycle your rubbish then please email your address to: cavyrescueyahoo.co.uk , call 07932 750271 or visit www.cavyrescue.co.uk .
