National Pet Week (May 5–11)

I have spent my entire life surrounded by the love of pets including dogs, cats, birds, lizards, and fish tanks. It is hard not to feel the love of a pet, they are forgiving and have unconditional love. Ok, fish do not send love but they reward my Mental Health.

Did you know that in the United States, around four million pets are adopted from rescue shelters annually?

How did this Awareness Week come about?

The Fact Site explains National Pet Day is a day to celebrate your pets and show just how much you love them. Around 66% of households in the United States are believed to have pets. This high percentage shows just how much we love our furry friends!

Be sure to hug your pets often.

The photo is of Banjo, he’s long gone to pet heaven but he still feels my heart with joy. Photo taken in my office many years ago. He was one great dog, Banjo even had dignity while dying.
