Perth Andover Pets Get Helping Paw

As recently-flooded Perth Andover struggles to get back to normal, some animal-lovers stepping in to take care of supplies for the village's pets. Global Pet Foods, based out of Saint John and Fredericton, has worked with volunteers and suppliers to donate thousands of dollars worth of non-perishable cat and dog food. It's currently being distributed it at the Emergency Flood Center.

Global Pet Foods CEO Jeff Kelly says pets can fall by the wayside in crisis situations, as people struggle to take care of their own needs and rebuild their homes.

Kelly says the donated food will be enough to feed over 100 pets.
