Sweet bite for puppies

PUPPIES were licking their lips when the local Peregian Springs community came together on Monday 15 August to raise funds for animals in need as part of the annual RSPCA Cup Cake Day.
The fundraiser was held at the popular Pool Cafe in Peregian Springs and event organiser Julia Loaney said she was pleased with the turnout.
“The cupcakes were selling like hotcakes,” Ms Loaney said.
The morning tea was a sellout and the group was able to raise $661 for the RSPCA.
Special guests included Noosa RSPCA centre manager Nicole Cleary, Dr Alice O’Hare from the Peregian Springs Vet Surgery, Sunshine Coast councillor Steve Robinson and the cast from the Coolum Theatre Players who were on hand to launch their play, Sylvia, about a pup that is abandoned in a park.
Ms Cleary said it was great to see the community turn out in support of such a great cause and said anyone looking to adopt a furry friend can be a champion and adopt from the centre.
The RSPCA Noosa Champion Sale is on now with cats only $50 and dogs only $125 until 25 August.
