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 & Dogs are 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

U nfortunately 3.5 to 4 million animals are euthanized each year

If you or any one you know Is 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
