🐾 Final Pet Food Bank Update! 🐾

The Pet Food Bank in Iqaluit has officially wrapped up, and we’re so grateful for what it was able to do! Thanks to the generous support of @HumaneCanada, we provided dog food, cat food, and cat litter to about 100 families, helping them care for their pets in a place where we know access to these essentials isn’t always easy. 🐶🐱

The Pet Food Bank made a real difference for many families. We know the need is still there, and we hope to be able to get another grant in the future to continue helping.

A big shoutout to all the dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens we met while delivering supplies—it was obvious you are all well loved by your families! 🐾

And a HUGE THANK YOU to HUMANE CANADA for making this possible—it meant so much to our community. 🐾
