๐Ÿšจ EMERGENCY GREMLIN ALERT: WE OPENED OUR PHONES AND WE WERE TERRIFIED ๐Ÿšจ

We took a quick breath, turned our backs for two seconds, glanced at our notifications, and - P**F. ๐Ÿ•ณ๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ

The dry kibble is GONE. Vanished into thin air. Consumed by the void. You guys came in like a furry hurricane and wiped out every single bag of dry dog food in record time! We were honestly afraid to keep refreshing the inbox because the messages were coming in at Mach 10!

The best part? Every single bag went straight out the door to dogs and families who truly needed it, which makes the sheer speed of it all so completely worth it! ๐Ÿฅนโค๏ธ

CURRENT STOCK SITUATION:

๐Ÿšซ Dry Kibble: โŒ P**F. ZERO. NADA. BARE SHELVES.

โ— Wet Dog Food & Dental Powder: โš ๏ธ Scraping the absolute bottom of the barrel!

โ— Insulin Needles (Cats/Dogs - M, L): ๐Ÿ’‰ Still available! (Reminder: Vet prescription IS required, no sneaky business!)

We are officially back on high alert, vibrating at an unsafe frequency, and scrambling to line up the next haul so we can get those bowls filled again.

HELP US REFILL THE VOID!

If you have extra kibble gathering dust, or if you want to help fund our next gas & van run so we can go hunting for more stock, please hit us up in the DMs or drop a donation!

Thank you all for being such an incredible community and helping us get food right where it needed to go. Back to the drawing board for us! ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿถโค๏ธ

ALERT THE MEDIA! UNLEASH THE GREMLINS! WE GOT THE GOODS! ๐Ÿšจ๐ŸงŒ๐Ÿถ

The dry spell is OVER. The kibble gods have smiled upon us. We just hauled in a MASSIVE load from the absolute legends over at Miss Dixie's Foundation, and our place is currently pure, unhinged chaotic joy.

THE HAVOC-INDUCING HAUL:

โ— Dry Dog Kibble: Crispy! Crunchy! Ready to fill those empty bellies! ๐Ÿฅฃ

โ— Wet Dog Food: The good sloppy stuff that makes them do the tippy-tappy happy dance! ๐Ÿฅซ

โ— Dental Powder: Because breath that can peel paint off a wall is officially CANCELED! ๐Ÿชฅโœจ

โ— Pet Insulin Needles: For our diabetic furry warriors! Stock available for Cats & Dogs in Small, Medium, and Large sizes! ๐Ÿ’‰๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿถ

๐Ÿšซ NO CHICKEN FREE๐Ÿšซ

โš ๏ธ THE GREMLIN RULES (READ BEFORE YOU REACH OUT!):

๐ŸชงInsulin Needles: REQUIRES A VET PRESCRIPTION! ๐Ÿ“œ You must show proof of a valid prescription to claim needles. No exceptions, no sneaky gremlin business!

๐Ÿ’ธ Fees: Our standard $10 service fee applies!

๐Ÿš— Delivery Notice: Delivery options are available (with a delivery fee), but delivery is NOT for convenience - it is reserved exclusively for those who are physically unable to pick up. If you can make the trip, please leave delivery spots open for those who truly need them! ๐Ÿšš๐Ÿ’จ

๐Ÿ“Š THE BREAKDOWN (HOW WE GOT IT HERE):

Running a haul takes a village (and a lot of coffeeโ˜•). Here is what it cost us to make this trip happen:

๐Ÿš Cargo Van Rental: $93.20
โ›ฝ Gas: $55.00
๐Ÿท๏ธ Load Fee: $130.00
๐Ÿ’ฐ TOTAL COST: $278.20

๐Ÿ‘€ Fun facts: If we didn't have an absolute rockstar of a volunteer driver, we would have been paying an extra $80 for labor at $20/hr for 4 hours! Massive shoutout to our incredible volunteer for saving the day! ๐Ÿ™Œ

AND if our amazing driver didn't have insurance we'd be paying an additional $40 for the insurance๐Ÿคฏ

HOW TO GET ASSISTANCE:

Do ๐Ÿšซ NOT ๐Ÿšซ just show up unannounced unless you want to see us vibrating at an unsafe frequency!

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿพ BREAKING NEWS: THE GREMLINS HAVE BEEN DEFEATED... FOR NOW. ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿšจ

Friends...

It is with great sadness (and completely empty shelves) that we announce...

WE ARE OFFICIALLY OUT OF STOCK. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

The kibble has been yeeted.

The shelves are so empty they have started echoing.
We're pretty sure we heard one lonely dust bunny whisper, "Well... this is awkward."

To whoever took the last bag...
We hope your dog gives you extra kisses.

But also... rude. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Seriously though, THANK YOU! Every single bag of food that came through our doors went to help pets and families in our community. That's exactly why we do this, even if it means staring into the donation room wondering if we accidentally switched to minimalist dรฉcor.๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ

The gremlins are now on an epic quest for more kibble.
Current objectives:
๐ŸŽ’ Loot more donations.
๐Ÿ“ฆ Refill the cave.
๐Ÿถ Resume spoiling dogs.
๐Ÿ˜พ Convince cats that empty shelves are not our fault.

๐Ÿ‘€ Keep an eye on our page! The second the Kibble Gods bless us with another haul, we'll let everyone know.

Until then, the gremlins are accepting:
โ˜• Caffeine๐Ÿคฃ
๐Ÿ“ฆ Donations
โœจ Thoughts and prayers to the Kibble Distribution System
๐Ÿฆ Emotional support raccoons

We'll be back.

The gremlins always come back.

Probably covered in dog hair... but we'll be back. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿพ BREAKING NEWS: THE KIBBLE GOBLINS HAVE STRUCK AGAIN ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿšจ

We have once again been entrusted with a glorious mountain of dog food, and honestly... we're starting to think the kibble is reproducing when we aren't looking. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

A MASSIVE, tail-wagging, zoomie-inducing THANK YOU to Bone & Biscuit Bone & Biscuit for an INCREDIBLE donation of dog food! ๐Ÿ’›

Seriously... you guys are enabling our addiction to playing Extreme Kibble Tetrisโ„ข and we're here for it.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Current Gremlin Inventory: ๐Ÿถ Limited dog food available! Once the goblins hand it out, it's gone. ๐Ÿฑ Cat food? The cats held a secret meeting and voted "no." We have NONE at the moment.
๐Ÿ’ฒ

The boring human stuff:
โ€ข Regular service fee applies
โ€ข Delivery fee applies if you need delivery

๐Ÿ†• New human spotted? Fill out an application (link in the comments), THEN send us a message or email.
The application enters the goblin archives. The message tells us you actually exist.

๐Ÿ“‹ Already have an application? Don't fill out another one! Just send us a message and yell, "THE GREMLINS SENT ME!" (Okay... that last part is optional.)

โš ๏ธ Supplies are limited, the gremlins are caffeinated, and the kibble won't last forever.

Once again, a HUGE thank you to Bone & Biscuit St. Catharines for helping us keep bowls full, tails wagging, and the goblin cave stocked.

Now if you'll excuse us, we're off to argue with a pile of dog food that's somehow taking up more space than physics should allow.

Chaos never sleeps. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿ“ข A Quick Clarification on Our Fees & Community Expectations ๐Ÿพ

We've seen some confusion lately, so we'd like to clear a few things up.

๐Ÿ’ฒ Our Service Fee and Delivery Fee are TWO separate fees.

๐Ÿพ Service Fee ($10):

This helps cover the costs associated with operating the food bank, including load fees, transportation costs for donation pickups, and other day-to-day operating expenses that allow us to continue helping pets in our community.

๐Ÿšš Delivery Fee:

This fee is separate and helps cover the cost of delivering food directly to clients who are unable to pick up. It goes toward fuel.

Neither fee is intended to generate a profit. They simply help offset the expenses involved in running a volunteer-operated organization.

We've also become aware that someone is continuing to spread the story that they were "banned for no reason."๐Ÿšซ

Without naming anyone, we'd like to clarify that this is simply not true.

There were personal issues between that individual and one of the founders that existed long before our organization became involved. Decisions regarding participation with NDFB are never made "just because." We don't discuss individual situations publicly out of respect for everyone's privacy, and we won't be engaging in public back-and-forth.

Our focus has always been, and will continue to be, helping pets and the families who love them.

We appreciate everyone who supports us, volunteers with us, donates, and continues to trust us. Thank you for allowing us to spend our time where it matters most, keeping bowls full and tails wagging. ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿพ

โค๏ธ A Personal Update from NDFB โค๏ธ

We wanted to take a moment to share a personal update with our community.

Our beloved 9-year-old boy, Gator Jack, has recently been diagnosed with advanced, aggressive thyroid cancer. At this point, we don't know how many weeks we have left with him, and our focus is on making whatever time he has remaining as happy, comfortable, and full of love as possible.

We are incredibly grateful to the team at Lock One Animal Hospital, who have been absolutely amazing as they've helped us navigate his diagnosis and continue down the palliative care path. Their compassion and support have meant more to us than words can express.

As many of you know, our dogs are family. Right now, we're choosing to spend as much time as we can spoiling Gator Jack, making memories, and ensuring every day is a good one.

NDFB will continue operating as usual, but there may be occasional delays in responding to messages as we balance our work with caring for our boy.

We sincerely appreciate everyone's patience, understanding, and kindness during this difficult time. Your support means the world to us, and we're grateful to have such an incredible community behind us.

Please give your pets an extra hug from us today. โค๏ธ ๐Ÿพ

We were humbled to receive this incredible shout-out from the Niagara Dog Food Bank.

For years, we've believed that pets deserve the very best nutrition, and we're proud to support organizations that help ensure families can continue to provide for their furry family members when times get tough.

Thank you for the kind words about Bill, our team, and our products. It means the world to us.

And we're excited to partner with the Niagara Dog Food Bank through a monthly donation to help support pets in need throughout our community.

Together, we can make a differenceโ€”one bowl at a time. ๐Ÿพโค๏ธ

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿพ BREAKING NEWS: THE KIBBLE HAS BREACHED CONTAINMENT ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿšจ

Friends.

Neighbors.

Concerned observers.

We have acquired ANOTHER load from Miss Dixieโ€™s.

At approximately "way too much o'clock," the gremlins looked around the cave and said:

"Wow, we finally have some room."

The universe immediately took that personally.

๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ

There is now so much pet food in here that we're considering charging the kibble rent.

The cats have formed a union.

The dogs have begun scouting the perimeter.

We haven't seen parts of the floor in hours.

๐Ÿ’› Massive thank you to Miss Dixie's Foundation for continuing to support our chaotic little operation. Every bag helps us help more pets and their humans, even if it means we may never see the walls of the kibble cave again.

๐Ÿšš And then there's Amy Helen

Amy received what can only be described as a completely reasonable and not-at-all suspicious message that basically said:

"Hey... hypothetically... how do you feel about driving somewhere and returning with enough pet food to alter the local gravitational field?"๐Ÿ‘€

And Amy said YES.

Not only did she say yes, she jumped in at the last minute and saved the day like the absolute chaos gremlin champion she is.

Please direct all appreciation, applause, and imaginary medals toward Amy. ๐Ÿ†

๐Ÿ“‹ Human Rules Before the Gremlins Forget:
โ€ข Usual rules apply
โ€ข Usual fees apply
โ€ข Application is in the comment section

๐Ÿ“ฉ Need assistance? Message us! The kibble mountain is large, but it is not self-distributing. If you need help, send us a message and we'll do our best to get you sorted.

Current status of the gremlin cave:
โœ… Kibble everywhere
โœ… Treats everywhere
โœ… Volunteers questioning their life choices
โœ… One step away from being classified as a pet food ecosystem

Thank you to everyone who helps make this madness possible.๐Ÿคช

Now if you'll excuse us, we're off to play Advanced Kibble Tetris: Expert Difficulty and see if we can still locate the front door.

Send help.

Or shelving.

Preferably shelving. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿพ GREMLIN LOGISTICS DEPARTMENT STRIKES AGAIN ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿšจ

Against all odds, despite questionable amounts of caffeine and an alarming lack of adult supervision, the donation gremlins have successfully launched another cross-community supply mission. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

๐Ÿ“ฆ A pile of donations has officially been yeeted over to Newark Neighbors to help keep pets fed and tails wagging.

๐Ÿšš Massive thanks to Community Initiative for Animal Rescue for swooping in and picking everything up, we are forever grateful.

๐Ÿฑ Meanwhile, a stash of cat treats has been smuggled over to Happy Days Sanctuary , where we fully expect it to be inspected, judged, and eventually approved by a committee of cats.

๐Ÿ’› And to all of our volunteers:

You sort the mountains.
You haul the boxes.
You drive the miles.
You somehow tolerate the chaos.

Honestly, this entire operation is held together by teamwork, determination, and what we're pretty sure is pure spite.

Every donation that gets moved, every bag that gets delivered, and every animal that gets helped is because people keep showing up and making it happen.

So here's to the volunteers, the transporters, the donors, the partner organizations, and everyone else helping keep this giant pet-food-powered circus running.

The gremlins salute you. Now back into the chaos pit we go. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿพ
