Valentine's gifts for animal lovers
Reviewed — suggested amounts · Editorial policy
A week of leaves for a rescued sloth, their name on a card you print yourself. A Valentine’s gift that supports animal rescue rather than another bunch of flowers.
Valentine's Day 2027: — nothing is posted, and you can print a gift card on the day itself.
What is a charity Valentine's gift?
A charity Valentine's gift is a donation in your Valentine's name to WARN’s general fund, named after a kind of animal care: £12 for a week of fresh leaves for a rescued sloth, £10 to keep an orphaned hoglet warm. Print a free gift card naming them and the gift you chose.
Who should skip this: Skip these picks if they wanted a live animal, a posted hamper, or Gift Aid on the donation. World Animal Rescue Network is a CIC — no Gift Aid, no pet in the hallway. Print our gift card if they need something to open.

How does this gift work?
- Pick a tag. Each gift names a kind of care and has a suggested amount, not a measured cost.
- Donate through WARN. Your gift goes to WARN's “Where it's needed most” fund, and WARN emails you a receipt.
- Print the card. Make a free printable gift card with their name and your message, then print it or save it as a PDF.
Common questions
Can I send a Valentine's gift card directly to them?
Yes, by doing it yourself. Make a printable gift card, save it as a PDF from your browser's print dialog and email it to them, or print it for the card. Charity Shop does not send anything for you, and WARN emails only your payment receipt.
What if they've left Valentine's to the last minute too?
Leave it late and the gift card is still ready in minutes: donate, make the card, then print it or save it as a PDF. Nothing to post.
