Fort Worth animal shelter reaches critical capacity, moves pets to outdoor enclosures
The Fort Worth animal shelter is in need of help as it reports that both of the city shelters are well beyond capacity. As a result, some of the animals are being kept in temporary outdoor enclosures.Fort Worth animal shelters face critical overflowThey’re calling it a dire-need situation. The City of Fort Worth needs people to adopt an extreme overflow of dogs and cats.Both the city’s shelters are well beyond capacity. That means they no longer have room for new animals to come in.Pet surrenders and stray intakes riseIn the month of June, Fort Worth city officials say, is typically when more people surrender pets or drop off strays. However, recently, the intake exceeds what they can handle. They have incentives in place for those who adopt or choose to foster an animal temporarily, as the city’s animal care and control division currently has 371 animals."Ideally, we would want to keep the shelter at a capacity of around 250. That would just be more sustainable for everyone involved

Fewer Texans qualifying for SNAP benefits, putting pressure on local food banks
With fewer people qualifying for SNAP benefits in Texas, local food banks and pantries are feeling the pressure.Changes to SNAP requirementsMore than half a million fewer people are qualifying for SNAP benefits in Texas. That decline is tied to changes in work requirement rules that became law last year under HR-1, known as the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" passed under President Donald Trump.Celia Cole, the executive director of Feeding Texas, explained the impact of the legislative changes. Feeding Texas is a network of 20 food banks providing hunger help across the state."Primarily HR-1 created new work requirements for new populations," Cole said. "So everyone's always had to work in order to receive SNAP if they're able-bodied, but seniors and parents and kids were exempt, and HR-1 changed that. So now adults 60 to 64 have to be working in order to get benefits. If they fail to work for more than three months, they're cut off from food assistance, and the same is true for parents w
