Kern County Animal Services is once again offering free pet food to pet owners who are struggling to keep their dogs and cats fed.
Bags of dog food and cat food are available during normal business hours at the shelter: 3951 Fruitvale Avenue, Bakersfield, CA 93308
There are no income restrictions and no complicated application process. All you have to do is ask. We will ask you to complete a brief questionnaire for research and accounting purposes.
In addition, our Animal Control Officers carry pet food with them while on patrol and may be able to assist pet owners in need as they respond to calls throughout our community.
The Bakersfield Pet Food Pantry emerged out of a pursuit to support the community, and a desire for actions to speak louder than words. Established in 2009, they are an organization driven by compassion. The Bakersfield Pet Food Pantry provides a resource to help owners continue caring for their long-term family pets despite economic hardship.
