Each year approximately 3-4 million pets are adopted from shelter and rescue groups, but 2.4 million healthy and treatable pets still need our help to find a home. I’m reaching out to you on behalf of Bloggin' Mamas, who would like to support the The Shelter Pet Project, a collaborative effort between The Humane Society of the United States, Maddie’s Fund®, and the Ad Council. To help spread the word, Bloggin' Mamas is sponsoring a $100 Amazon Giftcard Giveaway.
The goal of The Shelter Pet Project is to make shelters and rescue groups the first place people turn when looking to get a new pet. In celebration of “National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day” on April 30 and to support “Adopt a Cat Month” in June, Lance Bass (a radio host and entertainer who first rose to fame as a member of NSYNC) has joined The Shelter Pet Project to share the love and joy that adopted pets bring to his life. Bass, his husband Michael Turchin, and their rescue dogs Lily, Foster and Dingo star in a “Meet My Shelter Pet” series video from The Shelter Pet Project. A second video, narrated by Bass, highlights the importance of shelter pet adoption and provides viewers with more information on how to adopt.
The Shelter Pet Project showcases the unique bonds between shelter pets and their adoptive owners, and reminds people that there are thousands of amazing shelter pets ready to meet them. These videos and other ads help break down misconceptions surrounding shelter pets and spread the word that pets in shelters are wonderful and loveable.

I didn't "learn" anything, per se, but as an owner of a shelter pet, I love this!

ReplyDeleteI learned about the three kinds of adoption organizations! :)
ReplyDeletegood cause
ReplyDeleteI learned that their page has several excellent search tools and that you can interact with a pet on the page. I wish that all shelters were no-kill shelters.
ReplyDeleteI learned that this is a great website to find pets to adopt! It is so easy and the pictures are great!
ReplyDeleteI learned that there is a shelter less than 5 miles from my house.
ReplyDeleteI learned that the shelter pet project will help you find a pet from a shelter. (sounds a bit like petfinder!)
ReplyDeleteI've learned that the adoption process can take minutes, more than an hour or even longer. It all depends on the type of organization and the adoption policies of that organization.
ReplyDeleteI learned that the Shelter Project was started in 2009 and helps get the word out about pet shelters, and pet adoptions.
