Meaningful Gift Ideas for People Who Have Everything

Wouldn't it be great if every gift you bought this season could affect someone beyond its recipient in a positive way? Nutmeg Spay/Neuter Clinic has two options that will delight your loved ones and allow you to support a service that's crucial to the well-being of Connecticut's cats and dogs.

1. Make a wine lover happy with a lovely bottle (or gift pack) of BenefitWines.com's organic wines, with a percentage of the proceeds donated to Nutmeg's FeralCare, Inc. Learn more and order here!

2. Buy lights in honor of a loved one's living or deceased pet now through January 1! At only $5 per light, the Nutmeg Spay/Neuter Clinic's Annual Memorial Tree is a beautiful way to remember the animals that mean and have meant so much to us -- and to give to animals now and in the future. There's still time to attend the tree-lighting tonight, from 5 - 7 at 25 Charles St. in Stratford!
