Thank you so much to the generous customers at Pets at Home in Kingston Park and Byker who have donated pet food during our Summer Appeal. We love being able to support people across our pantries to feed their pets. 🐈‍⬛ 🐶 🐾

You can donate pet food any time throughout the year in store, just look for the Blue Cross collection basket in the entrance.
