Baby Food For Sick Cats

The Baltimore Humane Society needs meat baby food to encourage its sick shelter cats to eat. The most popular flavors with cats are chicken, turkey and ham. Check the label and make sure it doesn't contain onion powder. Onions are toxic to cats.

You can take your donations to the shelter, 1601 Nicodemus Road, Reisterstown 21136.

The shelter is open on Mondays from 9 am-4 pm and Tuesdays-Sundays from 9 am-6 pm.
