National Pet Day April 11 2017

Tomorrow is National Pet Day!

From the official site –

National Pet Day was founded in 2006 by Pet & Family Lifestyle Expert, Animal Welfare Advocate Colleen Paige, to celebrate the joy pets bring to our lives and to create public awareness about the plight of many different kinds of animals awaiting a forever home in shelters and rescues all around the globe.

Here are our two pets, Sid (short for Obsidian, who adopted us in 2004) and Sandy (rescue dog named before we got him in 2015, who was abandoned on a beach) –

I’m celebrating, in part, by clicking on this (haven’t done so in far too long).

These are a handful of the suggestions from the official page (click here to see the complete list) –

~ Adopt a pet from your local shelter or pure breed rescue organization.

~ Volunteer at your local shelter and offer to care for the animals.

~ Donate blankets, food and toys to a favorite animal welfare organization.

~ Assist an ill, elderly or a financially struggling neighbor or friend by purchasing pet food, hay or needed items for their pets.

~ Buy your pet a fun new toy….or two…or five.

However you celebrate, I hope it’s a happy one for you and the pets in your life!
