Adopt-a-Senior-Pet Month

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is sponsoring the month of November as, “Adopt a Senior Pet” month.  Senior pets are often overlooked at shelters in favour of younger, “cuter” animals, but senior pets have many advantages.  Their personalities are established so you’ll really know the animal you’re adopting, many older pets are trained and used to routines, and senior pets can be more “steady” and calm than a younger dog or cat.  If you’re considering adoption, why not open your home to an animal in its golden years—you won’t regret it.

  1. We took in the sweetest 10-year old tuxie cat. She was my husband’s first cat and my second. She was one of the nicest cats I’ve ever met. I never regretted giving her a home, even though she died after only 2 years together from tumors. She was also wonderful when our son was born. She came from a home with 5 cats and 3 dogs and liked having all the attention for herself.
