The Panhandle Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) has put out an urgent call for pet food donations after the shelter completely ran out of dog and cat food.

  • In a statement on social media, PAWS said their supply of both wet and dry pet food has been fully depleted, leaving the shelter animals’ food bowls empty at mealtimes.

“The well-being of these animals depends on your kindness,” the post said. PAWS cares for stray and abandoned cats and dogs in the local community.

The nonprofit shelter is asking local residents to donate any type of dog or cat food they can spare, whether opened or unopened, brand name or generic. Monetary donations are also appreciated to help buy more pet supplies.

  • Community members can drop off donations at the shelter, located at 752 Lovejoy Road NW, during their open hours of Tuesday through Saturday from 9am to 5pm.

“These loyal friends rely on us, and we won’t let them down,” said PAWS in their appeal for help. The shelter emphasized that without adequate food supplies, the health and spirits of their animals suffer.

PAWS said community support is essential to their mission of rehabilitating and finding forever homes for local homeless pets. They are urging local residents to show their support during this pressing time of need.
