What you need to know
On Oct. 17, the animal shelter asked the public for pet food donations for its community pet pantry program, which provides food for community members fostering pets, according to a social media post from the shelter.
“This vital program allows us to provide food both for our supporters fostering pets and for our pet resource center, supporting families in keeping pets in their homes,” shelter officials said in the post.
All brands and types of pet food are accepted as long as they are sealed, according to the post.
Donations can be dropped off at the shelter during business hours, in the bins outside the building after hours or shipped directly to the shelter’s address at 755 W. Walker St., League City.
What else
The animal shelter announced in an Oct. 21 post that its canine kennel volume was at an “extreme” capacity level, with over 112% of available kennel space filled.
Six dogs are currently housed in temporary crates, offices, workspaces or other places not designed to house them, according to the post.
