Kaley Cuoco is spreading the holiday cheer!

The Emmy nominee, 38, announced she will be donating 500 of her Oh Norman! pet care Holiday Cozy AF sweaters to rescue organizations across the country

Cuoco will be donating to seven rescue organizations, including three New York City Animal Care and Control shelters, Pupstarz Rescue, Rescue Dogs Rock NYC, Paw Works and Deity Animal Rescue.

The actress’ new pet care brand, Oh Norman!, was launched earlier this year and works to create eco-friendly, durable and safe products for pet owners. Along with providing safe solutions for pet owners’ everyday challenges, the company also donates a portion of its sales to rescue organizations that strive to make a difference in the lives of animals.

The Bing Bang Theory alum shared the news in a recent Instagram announcement, showing off one particular cute and cozy sweater that featured a knit version of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. After sharing her announcement, Cuoco concluded the video by reminding viewers to “always remember to rescue your pet.”

Cuoco first launched the brand after drawing inspiration from her experience as a dog owner and the legacy of her late rescue dog Norman — a pit bull mix who died in January 2021 at the age of 14.

The brand first launched with liquid supplements, dog bowls, dog placemats, and matching human and dog sweatshirts.

At the time of the launch, Cuoco shared exclusively with PEOPLE how proud she was of the brand.

“Listen, I am simply a dog/pet lover. I was excited to come out with products that were obviously cute, that were affordable, but also eco-friendly, healthy, good for the dogs, good for the owner, easy to clean, easy, easy, easy,” she explained.

“I have many dogs coming in and out of my house, so things need to be easy. They need to be able to fall and not break,” shared Cuoco. “I need to be able to wash stuff. So it was clean, organic, fantastic, eco-friendly products and I’m very proud of that.”

She shared that before the brand’s launch, she tested all of Oh, Norman!’s products on her own animals.

“Calm the F down came from one of my dogs who is just so anxiety-ridden in the car,” she told PEOPLE of the chamomile extract and melatonin antidote that is used to combat dogs’ stressors.

“I rarely put her in the car anymore because she hates it, but when I have to take her to the vet or whatever, I would constantly be like, ‘Oh my God, calm the f— down.’ And we were naming the products, and I’m like, ‘Guys, we have to name this for what it is,’” explained the actress.
