TL;DR: recently deceased cat was on fancy internet "raw food." We have quite a bit left over and no idea where/how to donate it. Ideas? I'm hoping goons can help me out, here. Yesterday, we lost Josie, our feisty tortie. This isn't a memorial thread, although I did include some pictures at the bottom. Please ignore how tiny she looks -- we absolutely couldn't get her to put on weight, and I promise you, we tried. Josie had been abandoned in the woods for several months (by her previous shitstain owners) and had a number of intestinal issues. She had chronic diarrhea, and most food only made it worse. After trying a lot of different options, we landed on some expensive over-the-internet "raw food" that was delivered in bulk by mail. This stuff she loved, and it helped her intestinal problems quite a bit, so we switched her over to it. We tried offering it to our other two cats, but they won't touch it. And then yesterday happened, and we lost Josie, which we knew was coming but still loving sucked. Since you have to order this stuff in bulk -- I mean, they send it in three-month-size chunks at a time -- we've got about a month, month and a half left. Since they packed it in dry ice, it's not really something we can ship anywhere, and it would be expensive to ship. I tried calling a local shelter, but they won't take frozen or refrigerated pet food. Our vet didn't have any ideas. Surely somebody could use some of this fancy weird pet food before it goes bad. Preferably a shelter or a foster or somewhere that really needs it, but if I can't find one of those, I'd settle for just saving a fellow pet owner some money. Who do I call? How do I find places that might take this? Do any local (Pittsburgh area) goons want some raw cat food? Specifics: it's Darwin's Natural Pet Food, the 8 oz packs. We have 14 chicken and 6 turkey.
