Maxi Zoo Shelter Wishes: Give the gift of Christmas to animals in need

Our Shelter Wishes campaign kicks off in all Maxi Zoo stores from the 1st of December. Join us and make Christmas extra special for animals in need. With our Shelter Wishes campaign we would like to support local animal charities throughout Ireland for Christmas and fulfil their wishes with the help of our customers.

This year, many animal welfare organisations are facing challenges due to rising costs and, unfortunately, a significantly higher number of abandoned animals. Help us to support these animals by donating essential items like food, hygiene items, toys and beds.

From the first of December you can donate to your local stores chosen animal charity by granting a wish under our giving Christmas tree. Call in to your nearest Maxi Zoo to donate today. You can find your local store here.

Here’s how you can get involved:

Looking back to 2023

Last year, with the support of our customers, we were able to grant almost 4,000 wishes to shelter animals in Ireland. We were able to give the gift of Christmas to animals and help charities to care for them with food, snacks, litter, toys and hygiene products. We are looking forward to granting even more wishes to needy animals this Christmas. If you would like to support, you can visit your local Maxi Zoo store and donate today.
