How Can You Help?

A financial donation provides us with the greatest flexibility to obtain exactly what food and other items we need, and enables us to maximize our purchasing power by taking advantage of shelter discounts and bulk buying. Click here to donate now.

If you would prefer to purchase or donate in-kind items, our current needs are:

  • Cat litter
  • Caned cat food
  • Canned dog food

Donations can be placed in the donation bin in the lobby of our shelter. Please note that we are unable to accept opened food. Dry food in bags need to be within 6 months of its Best Before Date, and canned food needs to be within 1 year.

Volunteer

The OMHS Pet Food Bank is volunteer run. Any open positions will be listed here.

If You Have Lost Your Home

If you have recently lost your home, or may in the near future, the OMHS Families in Transition (FIT) Program may be able to provide temporary care for your pet(s). Please check our Families In Transition program.
