Pets need your help

Animal Medical Hospital (AMH), 2832 Monroe Rd., is holding a pet food drive through partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank.

The hospital said they are participating in this effort because recently, there has been an increase of animals surrendered and euthanized due to owners not being able to afford food.

AMH’s goal is to raise 500 pounds of food by Dec. 18.

“Providing food for these pets can save their life and keep them in the arms of their loved ones,” they said.

They are asking its team members, clients and the community to donate unopened dog and cat food (wet or dry). Red bin receptacles are located in their front lobby. Toys, treats and leashes are also being accepted. All items will be donated to non-profit shelters, rescue groups, foster pet homes and pet owners facing financial difficulties.

AMH is appreciative of any support they receive for this worthy cause.
