A Little Valentine to Warm Your Heart

Posted Feb 10 2009 12:00am

This Valentine’s Day, give a little extra love to a furry friend who will be lifelong devoted companion. A new pet could be the perfect solution to warm up your home and your heart!

Adopting a new pet from your local animal shelter will be a rewarding experience for you and your family. Who doesn’t love the sight of wagging tail when you get home or the sound of soft purr when cuddled up on the couch? According to Spay USA, more than 70,000 puppies and kittens are born each day in the US. There are simply not enough homes to accommodate all the loveable pets who really want to give you puppy kisses and kitten snuggles.shutterstock_23656240.jpg

Animal shelters are overcrowded and love knows no breed! You will be sure to find a devoted dog or cat that will bring your family joy and lots of laughs.  Adopting a new pet is a lifetime commitment, so make sure that you are ready to dedicate the care and time that your new family member will need as soon as Fido or Mittens arrives home.  Also, make sure to neuter or spay your pet so he or she isn’t contributing to the 70,000 puppies and kittens that are born each day.

Even if you don’t have the time or finances available for new pet, there is still something you can do! Shelters are in desperate need of food and your time. Pick up an extra bag of high quality pet food and drop it off at your local animal shelter. If you have the time, all the kitties and puppies will appreciate the walks and tummy rubs that you can give them while they wait for their new adoptive parents.
