 "Providing free pet food for
the dogs and cats of elderly, disabled or lower income residents of Forsyth County."
 AniMeals is a new
program in Forsyth County inspired by a similar program offered by Helen Woodward Animal Center in San Diego.
This program offers free pet food for the dogs and cats of elderly, disabled
or lower income residents of Forsyth County.
AniMeals helps keep people and their companion pets together by removing logistical and financial obstacles to ensure that clients will
always be able to provide nutritious meals for their beloved pets.
For many homebound individuals, a dog or cat is more than a
pet; it can provide friendship, joy, and a reason for living. Studies show that animal ownership also lowers illness levels and
mortality rates.
