Animal Charity Reports an Increase in Pet Food Demand Due to the Pandemic

The Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home has seen a 130% increase in pet food demand because pet owners have struggled even more to feed their pets throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Paws Pantry - the name of the foodbank service was launched back in October 2019 due to the charity seeing poverty-related issues seen on a daily basis.

“The pandemic has seen a huge increase in demand for our pet food bank. Wherever we can, we want to support pet owners to keep their pets with them in happy homes. We know first-hand just how much pet ownership can contribute to combating loneliness and supporting positive mental health in people, and pets are happiest when they are with their dedicated owners,” said Jamie Simpson, director of operations at the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home.
