SCRAPS Offering Great Gift And Other Ideas For Christmas

It’s a Christmas tradition that is growing each year and that is people going to SCRAPS - MJ Nine Lives Boutique in the Town and Country Mall to purchase not just cat items but additionally dog themed and other unique items in time for the big day.

“We have all kinds of great things with new things coming in everyday,” says Anne Marciszin with SCRAPS.

This year SCRAPS is featuring two great events.

First there is their 2021 calendar which this year focuses each month on a first responder who puts their life out there during the COVID - 19 pandemic.

Although the calendar features those who gave of themselves during the pandemic as well as their pets SCRAPS itself has not been immune to the effects of the pandemic. The pandemic has forced SCRAPS to not hold some of their most popular fundraising events due to the restrictions necessitated to help prevent the spread of the virus.

A wide variety of fundraisers has helped the group in their mission to assist feral felines in the city.

Despite the drop in fundraising opportunities the need to assist feral cats has not decline in 2020.

As part of their Christmas at the store SCRAPS is holding a silent auction for a wide variety of items at the store. To submit a bid you can text of phone 306 684-9048 or come in to Nine Lives Boutique and do it right in the store.
