FARGO (KFGO-AM) - A food pantry that stocks supplies exclusively for pets has opened in Bismarck. "Atti's Eats" is a non-profit division of Triple H Miniature Horse Rescue.
Organizer Alison Smith says the pantry is designed to help disadvantaged dog and cat owners feed their pets instead of being forced to give them away. Smith says many of the families needing help are in the Oil Patch, where the cost of living is high.
Pet owners who need assistance are required to fill out a needs application.
Organizers say the pantry is believed to be the first of its kind in North Dakota.
