If your pupper or kitty is in need of good eats, the Humane Society of Tampa Bay might be just what they need.
The no-kill shelter announced two free pet food programs available to Hillsborough County residents: food distribution services, and Animeals—meals on wheels for pets.
Animeals is meant for homebound and elderly citizens, according to its website. If pet owners qualify, the program will deliver monthly supplies of dog and/or cat food to the recipients home.
Food distribution is available at the shelter, 3809 N. Armenia Ave., on a first-come, first-served basis. All pet owners have to provide is proof of residence. Distribution takes place every Tuesday, 12 p.m.–3 p.m., and every Saturday, 10 a.m.–1 p.m.
If you don’t need the assistance, the shelter is also asking for bags of food to be donated.
