IMPORTANT UPDATE: NIBBLE FOR KIBBLE 2025 CANCELLATION

We regret to inform you that, due to low attendance and donations, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our annual fundraiser, Nibble for Kibble, scheduled for Sunday, May 18 from 2 to 5 at the Allenmore Golf Course & Event Center.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Please know we did not make this decision lightly, but only after carefully considering the number of registrations and the time and resources required to host a successful event.

We are exploring other options, such as an online event to offer the items generously donated by local businesses. We will keep you updated on this and other potential fundraising.

Thank you again for your continued support and understanding.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at 253.250.5078 or [email protected].

We are excited to ring in the New Year with some wonderful news! Thanks to the KIRO News, and more recently, the News Tribune pieces about our situation in Tacoma, two amazing donors have stepped in and offered to cover our rent and utilities for the next six to eight months!! And the property owners have graciously agreed to allow us to stay.

So, we will resume operations in Tacoma, starting on Saturday, January 11, 2025. Our hours and schedule will be the same as before: 2nd and 4th Saturday every month from 9 to 1. Monday services will start again on January 13; the hours will be 12 to 3.

Noah’s Pet Project will also be able to continue to provide their wellness program at the Tacoma location in 2025.

With our continued growth, we will still need a new home, but this allows us time to find the right spot, as we are looking to add a third partner at our new home …. more to come on that!

It is with great sadness that we announce we will be closing our Tacoma food bank location. Our last day of service in Tacoma will be Saturday, December 28, 2024.

The number of families needing assistance caring for their pets is steadily increasing and putting a strain on our finances. While we continue to receive in-kind and monetary donations (THANK YOU !!), they are no longer sufficient to feed all the pet families requesting help and cover our operating costs. We now have to buy food every one to two weeks, which is not sustainable.

We are NOT closing the pet food bank; we are just scaling back our operations. We are actively looking for a new home and exploring other options. In the interim, we will be opening our Spanaway location on the second (2nd) and fourth (4th) Saturday of each month to accommodate those families impacted by the Tacoma closure. Unfortunately, we will not be able to offer service on Mondays from this facility. We hope this is just temporary and will keep you posted.

Nibble for Kibble 2024 is just 3 weeks away and we need to know if you are coming! This event is our major source of income; it allows us to keep the doors open and provide food for pet owners in need.

This year the requests for help are steadily increasing and far outnumber donations. In August alone, we received 76 applications and served 42 new families. Please be a PET’S HERO and support us if you can – we have some great auction items, music, food and good company!

Please register and get your tickets at https://event.auctria.com/98ced818-6946-463c-b138-3f6c0b5f6a5c

THANK YOU Safeway of Spanaway! We value your donations!

Safeway @15805 Pacific Ave S Tacoma Did an amazing thing and I just wanted to do a shout out to them!

I called them to ask them for a donation of water for our kiddie pools for Dog Days of Spanaway, and not only did they donate 10 cases of water for us.... But they wanted to do more!

The store manager Jim had previously done pet food drives, so real quick (like I called him on MONDAY prior to the event) threw this together, and organized a drive that anyone that wanted to donate could drop an item in the cart and all proceeds went to The Pet Puget Sound Pet Food Bank!

Look at all they collected! We are so grateful to you Jim and Safeway and our Spanaway community!
