Pet Food Bank needs donations

The Seattle Humane Society is seeking donations to its Pet Food Bank.

The society provides food every month to more than 1,200 pets of low-income seniors and people disabled by AIDS, combined. Now, due to increased demand, the stock in Pet Food Bank is low. The Pet Food Bank relies directly on donations; all the food we distribute comes from individuals, community groups, grocery stores, and pet food companies.

Anyone can bring canned or dry cat and dog food to the Pet Food Bank at the shelter at 13212 Eastgate Way in Bellevue, anytime. Canned cat food is always the greatest need.

Individuals, community groups and businesses can hold pet food drives to benefit the program. Many local pet stores have in-store donation barrels for the Pet Food Bank

Volunteers pack, load and deliver canned and dry pet food to local senior centers, low -income housing complexes, food banks and individual homes.
