Adopt, Don't Shop

Are you looking to adopt a pet?  And did you know that if just 6 percent more people chose to adopt versus purchase their pets, dogs and cats would no longer lose their lives because of overcrowding in our nation’s shelters?  Instead, they would be safe in homes.  

We firmly believe all pets deserve the chance to experience a loving family and that's why we've teamed up with local rescue organizations to help all cats and dogs find a fur-ever home. Throughout the year, we hold rescue events with local rescue groups and no-kill shelters dedicated to finding suitable homes for deserving pets. These events are run by volunteers 100% devoted to placing pets with loving families, with a careful screening process.  

Benefits of Attending Rescue Events

• Interact with cats and dogs in a friendly environment
• Helps reduce crowded population in no-kill shelters and pet foster homes
• Aids a local non-profit organization with awareness and pet placement
• Careful screening matches the right animal with a suitable family
• A deserving pet receives the perfect home: yours

Perhaps you've already rescued a pet from a local shelter or taken in a stray.  If so, we'd love to help you spoil your new fur baby with our Share the Love program.  All adoptive pet parents receive a free gift basket with food and goodies for your new family member.  Simply visit our adoption rewards page to learn more or stop by our store to tell us all about your rescue and choose your gift.
