‘ MEOWLS ON WHEELS ’: LEADING PET-FOOD BRAND DONATES OVER 45,000 ‘ LIFE-CHANGING ’ MEALS TO HOMELESS PETS

HiLife , a popular dog and cat food brand , has donated over 45,000 meals to feed homeless pets .
The charities were nominated by the recent competition winners from HiLife ’ s popular social media giveaways .
HiLife was proud to provide three deserving charities , including The Cat Welfare Group and Flori ’ s Friends Rescue , each with 10,000 meals to help spread cheer and feed hungry mouths this past winter .
Pet charities have had a particularly tough year after normal income streams were cut due to the pandemic . Rescue centres and charities across the country have also reported a rise in the number of animals being brought into their care , putting increased pressure on funding .
The Cat Welfare Group is a charity run entirely by volunteers , rescuing stray or abandoned cats and rehoming them into secure , loving homes once they ’ ve undergone medical checks and treatment .
Lorri Seymour , CEO of The Cat Welfare Group , says : “ Wow — this truly is life-changing for us and we can ’ t thank HiLife enough . We are absolutely blown away ! With such an incredible donation , we will be able to redirect funds to veterinary care and , in turn , be able help more cats .”
To have a solid supply of food means each belly is filled with nutritious food and they are one step closer to their happy ever after .”
HiLife has donated a wide range of products to these charities , including kitten and adult food from its popular HiLife it ’ s only natural range , which is made using 100 % natural ingredients with lots of healthy protein options . The range is grain free , GMO free and has absolutely no nasty additives , preservatives or colours .
Commenting on the donation , Sarah Alexander , marketing director at HiLife , said : “ We ’ re a team of pet lovers and were only too pleased to help some truly deserving homeless cats and dogs . This year has been particularly tough for charities , so we were glad to hear how life-changing the donations are for them .”
