CURRENT SERVICE AREA: We are focusing assistance on the Quakertown Community area in and around Quakertown, PA. As we get started and build our pantry, requests from outside this area may not be eligible. Please include your town and ZIP code on the needs survey.

The Critter Cupboard is a community-based pet pantry preparing to serve families and caregivers in the Quakertown area. We are a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

During September, we are gathering information about local needs so we can plan future pet food and essential-supply assistance.

We are incredibly grateful for everyone who has asked how they can help - during our initial rollout, The Critter Cupboard is accepting tangible pet food and essential pet supply donations. As we learn and grow, we may offer additional ways to support our mission in the future - thank you for growing with us!
