Helping pets and the people who love them

Our Pet Food Pantry provides pet owners facing financial hardship with pet food, cat litter, and other supplies.

During the Covid-19 Pandemic, our Pet Food Pantry is available by appointment to anyone who is in need of assistance providing food or cat litter for their beloved pet(s). No paperwork is needed to participate. Other pet care supplies may be available as well, so please talk with us about your current needs.
