Free Food for Cats and Dogs
Yes, you heard me!
This Sunday, February 2, 2014 from 10am till 1pm at Wissinoming Park Recreation Facility in their parking lot located on Cheltenham Ave. between Frankford Ave & Charles St.
The Wissinoming Park is sponsoring a group that is giving away free pet food and cat litter – there will be volunteers on hand to help with information on all kinds of Pet issues, from behavioral, to helping with problem landlords or neighbors who don’t like animals -probably info on affordable veterinarian care.
The group’s website is www.phillynokill.org
This effort is in response to the City animal shelter seeing many distraught people coming in with beloved pets that they cannot afford to feed.
