Celebrating Our Furry Friends on National Pet Day

Today is April 11th which means it’s time to shower our pets with affection as we honor National Pet Day. This annual holiday was created to bring awareness to homeless and abandoned pets who are looking for their forever homes. It’s the perfect day to appreciate the unconditional love our pets give us each and every day.

Whether you’ve had your pet for years or just adopted a new furry friend, make sure to give them some extra cuddles and treats on National Pet Day. Play with your dog, brush your cat, or just relax next to your small pet today. Our pets are always there for us through good times and bad so this day is about showing them how much they mean to us.

Help Pets in Need Find Homes

If you’re able to adopt a pet in need of a home, consider visiting your local animal shelter on National Pet Day. There are so many loving animals without families who would be grateful for your compassion. By opening your home to a shelter pet, you can truly make a difference in an animal’s life and give them the love and care they deserve.

However you choose to celebrate, be sure to use the hashtag #NationalPetDay on social media as you share photos of your furry friends. Let’s come together to recognize all that pets bring to our lives every single day. With a little extra affection shown today, we can help spread awareness of homeless pets across the country.
