April 11th is National Pet Day, a day dedicated to pets who may not get the companionship and attention they need and deserve. This observance aims to raise awareness about the many orphaned pets in need of loving homes and encourages individuals and pet owners to take action in supporting these innocent creatures.
WAYS TO OBSERVE NATIONAL PET DAY
- Take pet supplies to shelters and pet rescues.
- Donate or volunteer at a local rescue.
- Offer assistance to a friend caring for pets recovering from illness, or simply in need of additional help with their pets.
- Adopt a pet or an additional pet? The more the merrier!
- Give your pets extra love and snuggles today!
