Our pets are members of our families. Not every dog or cat has found their family yet. So, we are thankful for the groups that help take care of them. Each year during the month of June, our MissCo locations collect much needed supplies for the Blytheville Humane Society and for Mended Paws Sanctuary. Please consider buying a few extra items and dropping them off at one of our branches.
