For those who have a heart to help people keep their pets in their homes, there is now a location in Ada where dog and cat food can be donated.

ReStore Community Center at 210 N. Main will help the Hardin County Humane Society by being a collection point for persons desiring to help dogs and cats stay with their owners.

Sometimes people have to give up their beloved pets because they can no longer afford to feed them, although they have had their pet for many years and the pet has become a part of the family. The Society also distributes donated pet food to people who foster cats and dogs.

Food donations will be given out by the Humane Society. ReStore is only a collection point, not a distributor of the food.

For readers living near Kenton, food donations may be dropped off at the Humane Society, 13510 State Route 68 South, between 3 and 9 p.m. on Wednesdays or from 8 to 11 a.m. on Feb. 28.

ReStore is open Monday and Friday from noon to 4 p.m. and Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from noon to 6 p.m. Donations may be left at the community center's backdoor at anytime. (Monty Siekerman)
