We Need Your
H-E-L-P
There are 164 Million pets in the
United States and only 20% of them were
adopted from shelters or rescues
Between 5.7 and 8 Million
animals enter into shelters
every year
Some of us
have a more difficult time
finding a home
Black Cats & Dogsare the most overlooked in
shelters and are twice as likely not
to ever find homes
Senior animals or those of us that look a little different still have a lot of love to
give
Unfortunately
3.5 to 4 million
animals are
euthanized
each year
If you or any one you knowIs looking for a pet. Please
consider adoption!
Adoption is usually less
costly and we will love you
unconditionally and provide you
with companionship
and reduce loneliness
Owning a cat has proven to lower your chances of dying of heart disease and on average people who own pets
live 2 years longer
If You cant adopt a pet, there are plenty of other ways you can help an animal in need
Volunteer at a shelter or help plan or attend one
of the incredible
fund raising events
Consider donating food to a shelter or when
purchasing food choose one that supports shelter and animal
rescue organizations
Donate your used towels, sheets and
comforters to a local shelter
Join us on Facebook and spread the word about pets like me who need a home
