Adopt-a-Cat Month
Sat June 1, 2013 |
If you've ever considered adopting a cat, now is a good time. Did you know?? According to The Berlin Longevity Institute, cats can add as much as 10 years to their owners lives. Picking up a cat has a nearly instantaneous calming effect on humans, causing blood pressure to drop and the heart rate to slow. The Humane Society has many cats to choose from and some are even FREE!!

Adopt-a Senior-Pet Month
Fri November 1, 2013 |
November is Adopt-a-Senior Pet month. There are many benefits of adoption an older pet. To name a few, their personality is already developed, may already be trained or house broken, and are more likely to be spayed or neutered. A senior pet may be a better pet for senior citizens than a new energetic puppy.
So give a wonderful animal another shot at a new life...adopt an older pet this month.
