S.O.S. - 'urgent need' for DRY food at county animal shelter

By Billie Owens

Volunteers for Animals sent out an urgent notice today seeking donations of dry pet food at the Genesee County Animal Shelter. They need kibble - for dogs, puppies, cats and kittens.

"If you are able to help out please consider dropping off food donations during adoption hours. We greatly appreciate the community's support and could not do what we do for the animals without it," says the e-mail.

Adoption hours are:

  • Sunday through Friday 1 to 3 p.m. (Closed Thursdays)
  • Wednesday 7 to 9 p.m.
  • Saturday 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The shelter is located at 3841 W. Main St. Road in the Town of Batavia. Phone is 343-6410.

Volunteers for Animals can be contacted at <http://www.vol4animals.org> or at P.O. Box 1621 Batavia, NY 14020.

Here's an email from Wendy with Volunteers for Animals:

Last week we sent out a plea for cat and dog food for the animals at the GCAS. The support from everyone has been overwhelming! We want to thank everyone who stopped in with food, The Daily News for printing our request and The Batavian for posting our request. Our food room is now brimming with food for the animals.

Many thanks to everyone.
