Thousands of people came to the Health Pet Clinic in Jefferson Parrish, Louisiana. This was the 1st of 4 events organized by the Humane Society of the US to help struggling pet owners in Gulf Coast Communities. Just outside of New Orleans, this one was very popular with lines so long that some people waited up to 5 hours!
But when the waiting was done and the people got what they came for, they said it was well worth the wait! Why? Everyone with a dog or cat that could get to the clinic got free microchips and free vaccinations for their pets. And because Freekibble donated 5 tons of Halo, Spot's Stew, each family took home two bags of healthy, nutritious food. This was a huge deal for people in the area… for many of them it meant that they could keep their animals in the family and not have to give them up.
We are very excited and honored to be able to help and see the many happy, smiling faces of people taking care of their pets. For all of the people at home or at work, playing Bow-wow and Meow trivia everyday, I want you to know that you are really helping make a difference! When you watch the video please realize that it is because of you that thousands of animals in the Gulf Coast area are eating big bowls of healthy kibble, while their human parents get to be relieved of the issues of trying to keep their animals.
