TEXAS IN URGENT NEED OF PET FOOD FOR ANIMALS DISPLACED BY HURRICANE IKE
K9CUISINE LAUNCHES A FUNDRASING DRIVE TO GET CUSTOMERS AND CONCERNED CITIZENS TO DONATE BAGS OF FOOD TO OUR FURRY FRIENDS IN NEED
Houston, Texas - Sept.23, 2008 -
Houston’s American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) is in urgent need of dog and cat food to help feed pets displaced by Hurricane Ike. The Houston SPCA is also coordinating rescue efforts for Galveston and the areas devastated by the hurricane.
K9Cuisine, an Internet company based in Paris, Illinois, Saturday launched the fundraising campaign “Send a Bag” to assist in the emergency delivery of supplies to Texas. K9Cuisine will deliver pallets of the company’s healthy dog and cat food directly to the Houston SPCA shelters on Tuesday, Sept. 23. K9Cuisine President Anthony Holloway sent out an email blast to thousands of his customers asking them to support this important cause. Now, Holloway is asking fellow animal lovers for support. The need at the Houston SPCA is so urgent that Holloway has rented a truck and is driving the pet food to Texas himself.
“Please join us in this worthy cause,” said Holloway. “Help in our efforts to keep thousands of pets healthy until they can be reunited with their families and returned to their homes.”
