(PRESS RELEASE) OVERLAND PARK, KS — GivePet, the pet treat company dedicated to giving back to shelter pets, partners with Shelter Slumber Pawty, a 24-hour fundraising event taking place on April 18, 2026. During this nationwide event, animal lovers stay overnight with shelter pets to raise critical funds and awareness for animal welfare organizations.
Both GivePet and Shelter Slumber Pawty share a common mission: to improve the lives of shelter pets by providing comfort, care, and increased visibility – helping them feel safe and loved during their time in shelters and ultimately find their forever families.
In 2025, Shelter Slumber Pawty raised more than $1 million to support shelter animals. This year, 99 shelters across 33 states will participate in the event. In celebration of GivePet’s 10-year anniversary, the company will donate more than 1,000 treats to each participating organization – for a total donation of 10,000+ treats nationwide – helping ensure pets experience comfort, enrichment, and a little extra joy throughout the event.
“Turning 10 is a huge milestone for GivePet, and we wanted to celebrate in a way that truly reflects who we are. By giving 100 rescues 1,000 treats during the Slumber Pawty on April 18, 2026, we’re honoring the shelters and rescue partners who inspire us every day and continue to make a difference in the lives of pets across the country,” said Chris Dennis, GivePet Co-Founder.
Every purchase of GivePet treats helps support shelter pets in need, giving pet parents across the country a simple way to make a meaningful difference. By choosing GivePet, customers are not only treating their own pets to delicious, high-quality snacks – they are also helping provide love, comfort, and support to shelter animals waiting for homes.
