We apologize to anyone who stood in line and then did not receive food at our last distribution day. We had a record turn out (182 pet owners + those we were not able to help) and the demand exceeded our supply of donations. We are working on ways to address this, as we don't want anyone to wait in line and then not get food.

During these difficult economic times, some families are facing the choice between feeding themselves or taking care of loved ones. This choice is made by parents of low-income families every day and many times involves the family pet. Feed the family or feed the family pet? Visit the doctor or provide food to the loved pet? Local shelters and animal rescues are experiencing an increase in owner relinquishments of family pets due to the family’s inability to afford pet food and pet care for their beloved 4 legged family members.
Giving up a family pet to make sure it is has food and is healthy is a very traumatic experience for both the humans AND the animal. Fortunately, many families will no longer be required to make the choice to feed themselves or their pets. The Cincinnati Pet Food Pantry will provide temporary food assistance to Pet Guardians who are currently unable to afford food for their pets and may be forced to give up their pets without food assistance. Dog and cat food as well as a limited supply of cat litter will be available.
Our Mission
To keep pets with their families and prevent pets from being surrendered to local shelters, turned loose, or otherwise given up because a Pet Guardian is unable to afford food for their pet.
Who We Are
The Cincinnati Pet Food Pantry is a program run by the Cincinnati--based animal rescue, Recycled Doggies. Recycled Doggies focuses on saving dogs from death row at local animal shelters and finding them new homes. However, in addition to saving the dogs already in shelters, Recycled Doggies wants to be part of the solution by preventing family pets from being given up to shelters in the first place. Recycled Doggies hopes to bring awareness to the effect that the economy is having on pet owners in our area by offering pet food assistance. Recycled Doggies is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Recycled Doggies has a website, www.recycleddoggies.org.
