If you’re struggling to come up with a favour idea, animal lovers might like to support Ireland’s leading animal welfare charity, the ISPCA who work to prevent cruelty to animals, promote animal welfare and proactively relieve animal suffering. You get to choose your own pics too if you like so you can have a snap of your own precious pet on table cards!
