ReStore now collection point for dog and cat food donations

Posted by Fred Steiner on Friday, February 13, 2015

For those who have a heart to help people keep their pets in their homes, there is now a location in Ada where dog and cat food can be donated.

ReStore Community Center at 210 N. Main will help the Hardin County Humane Society by being a collection point for persons desiring to help dogs and cats stay with their owners.

Sometimes people have to give up their beloved pets because they can no longer afford to feed them, although they have had their pet for many years and the pet has become a part of the family. The Society also distributes donated pet food to people who foster cats and dogs.
