Mathia Slinkard of Tonganoxie recently dedicated her birthday to helping pets in Leavenworth County. She raised money for the Leavenworth County Humane Society and gathered a dozen large boxes and bags of pet food, treats and toys. LCHS shared the supplies with the Council on Aging’s “Pets and Loving Seniors” program, which helps keep Leavenworth County seniors and their pets together, healthy, and happy.
