Pets Global, along with local college students, retailers, rescue organizations, and volunteers, have united and distributed over 120,000 lbs of donated cat and dog food to over 35 communities affected by Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton.
Ensuring that high-quality pet food is accessible to as many pet parents as possible is one of Pets Global Inc.’s main commitments, and as a part of this mission, they have stepped up in times of crisis, offering both hope and nourishment to animals in need.
Following the devastation caused by recent hurricanes across the Southeastern U.S., the company has partnered with rescue organizations, small businesses, and animal advocates to provide crucial relief to pet owners. They continue to support those still recovering from the storms’ aftermaths, with more than 120,000 pounds (over 60 tons) of premium pet food delivered to affected communities in North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia, Georgia, and Florida.
Saving Lives and Providing Hope
Pets Global’s efforts are about much more than just food. They represent a lifeline for pet owners who are struggling to care for their beloved fur babies while trying to rebuild their lives. With the support of trusted partners such as Southeast Pet, Pet Source, and dedicated volunteers from Emory & Henry University, the company has managed to reach even the hardest-hit areas. By joining forces with local animal welfare organizations like the Smyth County Animal Shelter, Animal Shelter of Sullivan County, and Blue Ridge Humane, Pets Global has ensured that pet parents everywhere get the essential supplies they need to care for their furry companions.
The wake of these hurricanes has affected entire communities, and for many, pets have remained a constant source of love and comfort. “Our community has opened their hearts, wallets, and working hands to help us,” said Ericka Gamble of the Animal Shelter of Sullivan County, Tennessee (ASOSC). “This area was not prepared for the disaster that hit us. Many people lost everything, but this hurricane affected us all. For some people, their pet is all they have left.”
Pets Global understands the deep bond between pet owners and their animals, even more so during trying times. That’s why the company knew they needed to help. The sixty tons of pet food they provided included a variety of products for both dogs and cats, from kibble to wet canned food, and even treats. These came from some of their most trusted and limited-ingredient brands, including Zignature, Fussie Cat, Inception, and Essence.
A Giant Effort, From Coast to Coast and Across State Lines
The effort to distribute this food to the communities in need was no small task and required a coordinated effort between over 30 individuals across seven states. From its headquarters in Southern California, Pets Global worked tirelessly to ensure that these crucial supplies were transported and delivered efficiently.
“I am grateful that we at Pets Global are able to not only assist efforts in Western North Carolina but also the harder-to-reach rural towns in the Tri-Cities,” said Ellie Mosser, Community Relations Specialist at Pets Global and Emory & Henry alum. “We pride ourselves in supporting independent retailers, and assisting in local grassroots efforts is a natural extension of that commitment.”
For the independent, family-owned pet food company, the focus is always on helping people and pets thrive together. By providing relief to pet owners in these disaster-stricken areas, Pets Global is making sure that families can keep their pets safe and well-fed, even when times are tough. The hurricanes might have upended many lives, but the response from organizations like Pets Global has helped restore some normalcy and faith for pets and their parents in the affected regions.
