Emergency Relief Supplies Sent to the Scene of the Southern California Wildfire

On September 1, PetSmart Charities responded to a request for assistance for emergency relief supplies from the Pasadena Humane Society, which is involved with animal rescue efforts on the scene of the Southern California wildfire. More than 2,300 pounds of pet supplies, including bird seed; rabbit, parrot and parakeet food; puppy pads and litter pans; water bottles; crates; totes; and airline travel kits departed from the PetSmart Distribution Center in Phoenix, bound for Pasadena.

Since the fires broke out, PetSmart Charities has been at the ready to deliver lifesaving pet supplies if needed. We will continue to monitor the wildfire situation in California and provide further assistance if called upon. Visit our Emergency Relief Waggin'^® page for more information about this program.
