PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Silly smiles on the outside of face masks are brightening people's days and supporting the mission of an area animal shelter. 

You can put on a happy face with a smiling puppy or kitty mask. There’s a little nose and tongue, and the words "The Pennsylvania SPCA," showing your support.

Gillian Kocher is a spokeswoman for the PSPCA.

"There’s even more to it than just brightening someone's day," said PSPCA spokeswoman Gillian Kocher. "Of course the masks benefit our life-saving mission, but we are doing them also through a company called Bonfire, which for every mask that is sold they are actually donating an additional mask to a health care provider. So it's really something that is helping animals, it’s helping people and of course it's protecting all of us as we are adjust to a new normal."

The masks are available at the Bonfire website.
