The giveaway runs from 9 to 11 a.m. at the Stafford Code Compliance Building, 2510 S. Main St., across the street from City Hall. No appointment is needed. Staff will hand out supplies on a first-come, first-served basis.

Items available include dry dog food, dry cat food, cat litter, and dog toys and treats, according to a news release on the city's website.
