Yes, the homeless have pets.
Family Animal Medicine in Owasso will be assisting Night Light Tulsa with their Thursday Night Missions, which benefit the homeless.
FAM will be at the Thursday, April 3rd event vaccinating and worming those animals.
Owassoisms has partnered with FAM to help collect needed pet items to take that night which include:
♦ Leashes/collars
♦ Pet food: Small pouches or large bags with baggies to divide for a week at a time of supplies.
♦ Collapsible water bowls, or small portable ones.
♦ Pet clothing that protect from the elements
Donations should be brought to the Owassoisms office, 8555 North 117th East Avenue, Suite 103 in the Three Lakes Office Complex. For more information please call our office at 918-274-1500.
What does Night Light Tulsa Do? “Night Light is an event that takes place every Thursday night from 6:30pm-9:00pm. We rely on our volunteers to provide our services to Tulsa’s homeless population. As a volunteer, your night will begin at 6:30 with an orientation designed to go over our rules and expectations in order for Night Light to run smoothly and safely. It also is the time when all volunteers will be broken into smaller teams. We will have a team that will be preparing/serving food, a team that will be washing feet and clothing them in new socks, a team that will be handing out basic needs items and bottled water, a team of “minglers” whose primary job is being our eyes and ears and making sure the event is safe and secure while also being a friendly face, and a team who will be sitting at tables sharing a meal and conversation with our guests. At the end of Night Light all volunteers will come together as our clean up crew.”
