We know how important pets are. They offer comfort, companionship, and unconditional love—especially for neighbors who live alone or face health challenges. But we also understand that caring for a pet can be tough when you’re already stretching your budget to meet your own needs.

Some of our Meals on Wheels neighbors were sharing their food with their pets just to make sure they didn’t go hungry. That’s when our volunteers stepped in—and Ani-Meals was born.

Since 2015, Ani-Meals has been helping neighbors like you care for their pets without going without themselves.

Ani-Meals Offers:
Monthly deliveries of free pet food, including small-bite dry dog food and canned cat food
Help with pet care, like vaccines, basic exams, and spay/neuter services
Once-a-month Saturday delivery right to your door by friendly volunteers
Peace of mind—so you and your pet can both stay healthy and well

Who Can Receive Ani-Meals?
If you’re part of our Meals on Wheels or Home Delivery program and have a pet, you may be eligible for Ani-Meals. Just reach out to learn more—we’re happy to talk it through with you.
