KIBBLE SUPPLY PET FOOD PANTRY
The Kibble Supply Pet Food Pantry is a program designed to help struggling community members feed their cats and dogs. Any individual who is experiencing hard times (including caretakers of feral cat colonies) can take advantage of this program so long as they are willing to abide by the few guidelines set in place. This program is NOT available to other rescue groups or shelters.
If you require immediate assistance with pet food, you can attend a scheduled Kibble Pantry day without submitting an application for the first time. However, after utilizing the Kibble Pantry, it is your responsibility to either complete the application or reach out to our Community Pet Resources Program for help in filling it out.
For emergent food or help please call 970-484-8516 ext. 5133 or email PetResources@savinganimalstoday.org.

The Kibble Supply Pet Food Pantry is a first come, first served program. We ask that you not save spots in line for other people receiving food. This program is intended to supplement the food you purchase for your dogs and cats. We will provide you with half of the amount of food needed to feed your pets for one month. Food amounts for dogs are based on the dog's weight. All cats receive a set amount of food regardless of size. Animal Friends Alliance Kibble pantry is located at 2321 E Mulberry St Unit 12A, Fort Collins, CO 80524. We offer drive-thru distributions 2 times per month on the first Sunday and third Monday from 9am-12pm. We ask Kibble clients to only come once per month.

All dogs and cats in the household on the original application are eligible and are required to be spayed/neutered or working towards being spayed/neutered. Rare exceptions are considered with a note from a veterinarian. Additional UNFIXED animals added to your household that are not listed on the original application will not be given food from the Kibble Supply program. When reapplying to use our Kibble Supply program, if additional animals are added to the application, it is to the discretion of the Community Pet Resources team if those animals are allowed to receive food.

Kibble clients can be in the program for one year. Kibble clients should reapply if the number of pets in the home have changed.

Kibble Supply clients can establish someone else as an “Authorized Person” to pick up food for them in their application. Clients can also email PetResources@savinganimalstoday.org or call the Community Pet Resources Manager at 970-484-8516 ext. 5133 to schedule an appointment to pick up food. Please keep in mind this may take up to one week to schedule, so it is preferred that clients make arrangements ahead of time to come on a distribution day. Each vehicle is allowed to pick up for a maximum of 4 households per distribution.
-
What if my pet is on a prescription diet or eats a specific kind of food? The Kibble Supply program is run on donated pet food. Due to the high demand of this program, we are unable to accommodate special requests/preferences of pet food. If your pet needs specific/special food, or is on a prescription diet, we must have a note from a veterinarian before providing the food. We can’t guarantee that when you come to a distribution day that you will receive the specific food you requested. We will try our best! We encourage clients to purchase specialty/prescription food on their own, and use our Kibble Supply program to help supplement generic pet food needs.
-
Most of the food distributed to community members is generously donated by area pet food retailers, including Poudre Pet & Feed Supply, Wal-Mart, Tractor Supply, and Food Bank for Larimer County. Anyone interested in donating bulk amounts of food to the program should contact the Community Pet Resources Manager at (970)-484-8516 ext. 5133, or email PetResources@SavingAnimalsToday.org to make arrangements.
We also accept donations of food from individuals. Smaller donations are accepted any day of the week during open hours. We also accept donations from individuals including unopen, opened, or non-labeled food.
