We are deeply saddened by the continued struggle of all Australians, animals and humans alike, in the face of the current bushfire crisis. As part of relief efforts, we have been collaborating with organisations who work with emergency services and relief agencies on the ground to help distribute pet food for displaced and injured animals. We are also working alongside several animal welfare organisations in bushfire affected areas to provide support to fire-damaged communities.
Our hearts go out to the people and animals affected by the devastating bushfires, and we encourage everyone with the means to contact their local accredited charities to lend a hand or a dollar where possible.
