Our Pet Food Pantry helps keep pets and people together! We host a monthly Pet Food Pantry out of our Knoxville shelter location at 6717 Kingston Pike. Please remember to check this website for cancellations and date changes. We rely on our community to donate food for this program and do not always have the same brands of food available.
We serve anyone with a pet need in our region. Bring a government issued Photo ID and proof of ownership for your pets and we will give you food that supplements what you can afford to buy on your own.
For the more fortunate who don’t need assistance, please consider donating food, treats, or litter to our location to help pet owners.
Need more info? Just email the program manager. Thank you for helping to keep families and their pets together!
If you are in need before the next date:
Please send an email to pethelp@humanesocietytennessee.org to make an appointment to come to our animal shelter in Knoxville.
Please include:
- Pets’ names
- Weights
- Species
- Age
- Type of food they eat now.
Because all of our food is sourced from donations we cannot guarantee that the same brand/flavor will be available each month. At this time, we do not carry any prescription food.
