Williamson County Animal Center: Purina and Amazon Treats for the Holidays Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

The Friskies Party Mix Cat Treats were given as a form of cat enrichment for the felines in our care. We aim to make their stay here as pleasant as possible, and these treats did just that! They perked up and knew it was treat time. It helped us gain their trust and build a relationship. It's funny how food can do that!

It helped us to provide stellar care and go above and beyond just food, water, and shelter. We also sent some treats home with adopters to ensure that the cats continued to get enrichment! We made sure to tell them that these treats were donated through a grant from the Petfinder Foundation. Hopefully, these new cat owners became Friskies customers!
