HARTFORD, Conn. (WTNH) — Hartford came together to help those in need and their furry friends.
Aid-A-Pet is a non-profit organization based in Hartford and one of the few pet food pantries in Connecticut.
It is located in the basement of Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Church on Capitol Avenue. Volunteers say people waited in line for two hours this morning to pick up much-needed food for their pets.
Organizers say pet food and supplies can get expensive.
“We really want to focus on maintaining pet ownership – not having to give up your pet because you don’t have the money to take the pet to the vet for basic pet care or to feed them monthly,” said Lorie Teardon, founder of Aid-A-Pet.
The pantry is open every third Saturday of the month. Visit the Aid-A-Pet Facebook page to learn how you can donate pet food, supplies, or money. The organizers also say they are looking for volunteers.
