Animals are cold in the winter too and this time of year lots of people find animals who have been left out in the cold and bring them in to shelters. Shelters also have been dealing with the influx of newborn animals (particularly kittens) and so are often down on money. So ask your local shelter what they might need and bring them a few things.
You can also help out animals that are in the cold. If you have feral cats in your area, you can make boxes for them so they can be warm in the winter (http://www.neighborhoodcats.org/HOW_TO_FERAL_CAT_WINTER_SHE…). Also, if you do that you might want to consider contacting trap neuter release programs in your area that can help make sure the cats you give shelter to are taken in so they cannot have kittens the next spring and add to the feral cat problem.
