If you’ve got some extra canned pet food at home or just want to help out some furry friends in need, Wichita Falls Animal Services (WFAS) is calling on the community for support. Your simple act of kindness could make a big difference in the lives of rescued animals.
Many animals arrive at the shelter in poor health, scared, underfed, or struggling with medical conditions. One of the easiest and most impactful ways to help is by donating canned pet food.
Why Canned Food Matters for Shelter Animals
Canned food isn’t just a tasty treat—it plays a key role in the recovery of shelter pets. According to WFAS, it helps in several important ways:
- Encourages scared or nervous animals to eat
- Helps with giving medications
- Boosts hydration and nutrition, especially for weak or sick animals
Your donations can help make sure each pet gets the care, love, and nutrition they need while they wait for their forever homes.
What You Can Donate
WFAS is specifically looking for the following:
- Canned puppy food
- Canned adult dog food
- Canned kitten food
- Canned adult cat food
Any of these items can help shelter pets, and even a small donation makes a big difference.
