Needs persist throughout the year. The Animal Refuge Center requires substantial amounts of cat and dog food each month. In our community, dedicated volunteers tirelessly provide food and shelter to community cat colonies across Hardin County. Many of these volunteers use their own funds out of compassion, tackling a never-ending task to care for homeless pets.

Your donation to the ARC Food Drive will directly support feeding these animals. Your contribution will help sustain our shelter pets and provide nourishment for those living on the streets. By supporting these efforts, you help guide homeless pets to safety, where they can avoid the dangers of trash and other threats. Proper nourishment builds trust, allowing us to trap, spay/neuter, and either release or socialize these animals for adoption. The Trap-Neuter-Release program also helps reduce the number of kittens born on the streets.

If you prefer that your monthly donation supports Community Cats directly, please visit Cookie’s Legacy to pledge your support. Your ongoing contributions will feed cats at local feral colonies and support Trap-Neuter-Release programs, as well as other spay and neuter initiatives our shelter has planned.

We are deeply grateful to all who have supported the Animal Refuge Center over the past 30+ years. As we enter our third generation of caretakers, we invite you to consider making a commitment to improve the lives of Hardin County’s homeless pets.

As you contribute to the Animal Refuge Center’s Food Drive, please consider setting up a monthly recurring donation. Your generosity will make a significant difference for homeless pets who otherwise might not have a chance.
