Please Help This Group Feed Hungry Pets

This is a plea from some good people in Palm Beach County, where at least 20,000 homeless dogs and cats died at the shelter every year. Many are healthy and adoptable.

P.E.T.D.O.C.S. (PREVENT EUTHANASIA TO DOGS OR CATS SOCIETY) AND SAD-SAC (SAVE A DOG/SAVE A CAT) are working together to help stop this. To that end, the groups collect food for people who can't afford to feed their pets. The Caring Kitchen in Delray Beach distributes most of it.
