Carson City, Nevada (PRWEB) May 01, 2011

The nation’s deadliest tornado outbreak in almost four decades in the Southeast has left hundreds dead and thousands homeless, many with pets. Pets of the Homeless, a national nonprofit provides pet food and veterinary care to the homeless. Pets of the Homeless is inviting veterinarians in the areas of devastation to contact them to apply for aid to cover the costs of the many injured pets that belong to the countless families left homeless. Pets of the Homeless is also asking collection sites and distributing organizations such as food banks and pet food pantries in the affected areas, to contact the nonprofit to discuss how they can assist with pet food and supplies.

Help is needed. Pets of the Homeless is requesting their supporters and the public to raise money for the victims in the Southeast so the nonprofit can provide needed veterinary care and pet food. Different types of donations can be made on their website or at one of the many collection sites listed. The organization is also seeking volunteers who can help by starting a collection site for pet food donations.
