Adopt
Don't shop, adopt! More often than not, pet stores get their animals from illegal breeders, who abuse animals just to get money. When you adopt from a no kill shelter, you are helping to save animals by-
-
Helping the shelter expand and have more money to provide more shelter for animals.
-
Potentially saving another animal's life, because when you adopt, you save your pet's life, not to mention that you open a space in the shelter where another rescue can stay until they find their forever home.
When you buy pets at a pet store, you are-
-
Further enabling the illegal breeders to continue selling to the store and make more money so they can abuse more animals.
-
Helping the pet stores stay open and expand to breed and sell more pets.
Many people do not know how much good adoption can do in the world. We have to show them that it is. If you are planning on getting a pet, please adopt from a no-kill shelter. Tell anyone you know and help get the message out there. We are the only hope they have. Will you give them that hope?
