We recognize how important it is to keep seniors and their pets together. For some seniors, the Meals on Wheels volunteer who delivers a nutritious meal, friendly visit and safety check may be the only person they see all day, so their pet is their main companion and best friend. But taking care of a pet can be financially and physically burdensome to seniors. More often than not, a devoted animal lover with limited access to food will feed their hungry pet before they feed themselves.
That’s why we support both our seniors and their pets – to ensure that they can live nourished, healthy lives, together. Our agency provides Meals on Wheels & Meals on Wheels for Pets!
