COLUMBUS, Ind. — Friends of Columbus Animal Care Services (FCACS) is handing out pet food through their newly named Furry Friends Food Bank distribution. It will be given out this Thursday, May 18, from 4 to 5:30 p.m., at Columbus Municipal Airport, 4770 Ray Boll Blvd., in the parking lot in front of the plane, Charlie 119.
The pantry’s purpose is to assist community members with keeping their pets in their homes and out of the area shelters. Pet food will be available from the van until supplies last. Mixed brands of cat food will be distributed in 4.5-pound bags and dog food in 14.5-pound bags.
Attendees should stay in their vehicles and line up for the food, which will be brought out to you. This program is one of several FCACS initiatives designed as “alternatives to intake” at the shelter.
