No one knows who exactly, but some very nice person just helped a whole lot of animals. On Wednesday, staff at the Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA, in California, were shocked to discover their donation box was suddenly much fuller than it was moments before. Without being noticed, an anonymous visitor decided to drop in a wad of crisp twenties - a donation totaling a whopping $8,000.

For the shelter, which cares for some 12,000 animals every year, the influx of cash comes as a welcome surprise. "We are overjoyed by the generosity of this anonymous donation," a spokesperson from the facility told The Dodo. "We are incredibly grateful and extend a huge thank you to the mystery donor. Whoever you are, thank you so much for your generosity. Your donation will go towards all the animals in our care."
