Potter Pet Food Pantry

Many pet owners are struggling financially, and the Potter League’s Pet Food Pantry aims to help. Our pet food assistance program provides free supplemental cat food, dog food, and supplies when available to individuals facing financial hardship. We believe that keeping pets with their families is essential, and our goal is to prevent pets from entering shelters due to economic challenges.

The Potter Pet Food Pantry is open to anyone in need of temporary assistance. While the program is not designed to provide long-term support, we are here to help for as long as it is necessary. There’s no need for an appointment—just come by and let us help.
