Who We Are...
Comfort for Critters is a social entrepreneurship that donates handmade pet blankets to 400+ animal shelters across the US. To support our mission we sell e-books to help you make your own crocheted pet blanket, to donate to an animal shelter or to comfort your own pet!
Our blankets are made by a team of volunteers in every part of the US. They support one of the shelters on our list with their blankets, or send them to IL for shipping all across the US!
While homeless pets await adoption, the blankets provide a comfortable bed year-round. When they are adopted, their blanket goes with them, providing something familiar as they adjust to their "forever family."
Together we're making a difference to animal shelters, families & pets!

Make a Blanket!
If you know how to knit, crochet, sew, or just use scissors - why not start on a critter blanket today?
We have step by step directions and even free patterns!
They're fast to make and lots of fun! Once you have a few done, you can send them directly to a a participating shelter in your state (please let me know when you do), or contact us and we'll help you find a shelter right near you.
This is also the perfect project for any group. It's a great way to have fun and do good at the same time!
support our mission: purchase a book of crochet patterns to make pet blankets!
Linda, CFC's founder, is the author of two crochet pattern books on CFC's history, the animal sheltering industry, and how crafting can comfort the crafter (in addition to the pet!).
Both books also include 30 fun & easy crochet patterns to make pet blankets for shelters or your own pet!
All sales keep CFC's mission alive as we donate our blankets to 400+ shelters across the US.
