Pet Food Assistance Programs
- Friends of SVASC is proud to offer a Community Pet Food Pantry thanks to generous donors in the community. The pantry is housed here at SVASC and we are able to provide dry cat and dog food, along with other necessities, such as kitty litter, collars, and leashes. Please note that these items are provided based on donations, and therefore supply varies day-to-day. Email us at SVASC@co.augusta.va.us for more information on this program.

Trap - Neuter - Return
In a Trap-Neuter-Return program, community cats are humanely trapped (with box traps), brought to a veterinarian to be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, ear-tipped (the universal sign that a community cat has been neutered and vaccinated), and then returned to their outdoor home.
