SPCA sets up emergency pet supply pantry

Eatontown — Due to the recent devastation on the Jersey Shore the Monmouth County SPCA is collecting donations to help the animals of displaced families in the area as well as the animals that reside at the Homeward Bound Adoption Center.

In addition to the extra donations needed, the Monmouth County SPCA Maureen O’Brien Thrift Store, off Wall Street, has been temporarily converted to serve as the organization’s Pet Pantry emergency pet food distribution center. The center will be open daily seven days a week from 9 a.m.- 4 p.m. for families that are in need of emergency pet food or some related supplies as well for accepting any of the items from the MCSPCA’s urgent donation list.   If you are unable to travel to the Eatontown address and are in need of pet food for your animals please call 732-542-5342. It is because of people’s donations that the Monmouth County SPCA is able to help keep families together that are hurting from all of the storms that have hit the area. If you want to help and are unable to get to a drop off site or one of our locations you can text mcspca to 50555 to make a $5 donation every donation makes a difference. The Pet Pantry (located in the thrift store) is open 7 days a week from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. For more information or directions please call, click or visit: 260 Wall Street, Eatontown, NJ 07724; 732-542-0040, www.monmouthcountyspca.org
