Furry Friends Foundation
helps families over holidays
Furry Friends Foundation put its paws
to the pavement this past year and moved to
a new location. With the sale of The Nugget,
former publisher and founder of Furry Friends
Foundation, Kiki Dolson, moved the nonprofit
to the Sisters Art Works building in January of
2018.
“We’re happy to report a very successful
year of helping families. However, because the
need has been great, pet food and pet supply
expenses have more than doubled combined
with the added cost of rent this year, we’re in
huge need of cash donations,” Dolson reported.
Cash donations allow Furry Friends to target
its purchases of food to meet individual pets’
needs.
Donations also support Furry Friends
Foundation (FFF) in supplying spay/neuter and
vaccination services, pet food and supplies to
families and seniors in Sisters.
Sometimes a pet owner only needs a few
weeks of food to assure their pets can stay with
the family. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit, FFF is there
to help in the Sisters area.
“We’re also gearing up for the big holiday
pet food distribution and Pet Photos With Santa
fundraiser,” said Dolson.
Pet Photos With Santa is slated for Saturday,
December 1, at the annual Sisters Art Works
open house. Kathy Deggendorfer will be sell-
ing her art-inspired merchandise, Black Butte
School will be there selling their wreaths and
the dessert plate fundraiser for Sisters Food
Bank will be there, too. The open house is from
9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Pet Photos With Santa will
be held from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Furry Friends partners with the Sisters
Kiwanis and the Sisters-Camp Sherman RFPD
for their annual Spirit of Giving drive. The fire
department provides toys and gifts for children,
Kiwanis provides gift cards for people food and
Furry Friends distributes pet food, treats and
supplies, all on one big distribution day just
before Christmas. In 2017, Furry Friends pro-
vided pet food and treats to 131 families with a
collective 346 pets. A video of last’s year dis-
tribution can be seen online at www.youtube.

“We are thankful to be receiving another
large pet food donation from American
Nutrition for the drive,” said Dolson. “So
cash donations are very appreciated and
