Fort Faulsey Finds Another Lost/Missing Cat or Why You Should Donate to #PghCatFolx

His name is Checkers. He’s been on the lam since escaping his carrier at Humane Animal Rescue (HAR) Northside a few days ago. Marie saw the flyer online and sprang into action.

Update on Pet Food Pantry and SNAP recipients

Registered households increased by 16% in four days Late last week, we posted about our commitment to support pet owners who have/will lose their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP benefits in November due to the Republicans shutting down the Federal Government.
