At Pelsbarn, our mission has always been about more than creating luxury comfort products for your fur babies. We believe in actively supporting animal welfare. This August, with the continued support of our amazing customers, we made a meaningful contribution to Stichting DierenLot, an organization in the Netherlands that shares our deep compassion for animals in need.
Who is Stichting DierenLot?
Stichting DierenLot is a Dutch organization that supports animal rescue foundations and shelters throughout the Netherlands. Their mission is to improve the lives of animals in distress – whether they are injured, abandoned, neglected, or mistreated.
Their work includes:
-
Providing financial and logistical support to local animal rescue organizations
-
Supplying rescue vehicles (animal ambulances)
-
Offering emergency help for animals in crisis situations
-
Distributing food, equipment, and medical supplies to shelters in need
Stichting DierenLot fills a critical gap in the animal welfare system by empowering local initiatives and ensuring that help reaches animals where it’s needed most.
What We Donated – Comfort That Matters
This August, we donated a range of calming and comfortable products specifically chosen to support the physical and emotional wellbeing of rescue animals:
-
Fluffy Car Beds and Safety Seat Belts for safe, comfortable travel where emergency transport is needed
-
Calming Blankets to help reduce stress in shelter environments
-
Original Calming Sofa Beds to offer warmth, rest, and a sense of security and comfort
These items provide all the comfort to animals who are waiting for medical care, rehabilitation, or adoption.
Why This Matters
The sad reality is that thousands of animals in the Netherlands rely on shelters and rescue groups every day. Many arrive scared, sick, or injured. The road to recovery may be long, but we believe it begins with comfort, safety, and compassion.
Your support makes this possible. Every purchase you make at Pelsbarn helps us give back. Whether it’s a calming bed or a comfy car bed, these may seem simple, but can be life-changing for an animal in need.
