Creative Ways to Help Animal Shelters Without Adopting
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could adopt all the pets in the world?
Alas, it’s just not possible. But right now, homeless animals are in need.
In fact, over 6 million pets enter shelters across the United States every single year.
On top of that, the World Health Organization estimates there are 200+ million stray
dogs around the world, with the number of stray cats likely to be an eyewatering
480,000,000.
Yikes!
Not Ready to Adopt? That’s Okay
As an animal lover yourself, chances are you have thought about adopting a pet.
But the reality is, not everyone is able to adopt. For example, it can be time-consuming, costly in veterinarian and food bills, impacts all members of the
household (some of whom may have allergies), and is a lifelong commitment, which
isn’t always a good fit for people who travel a lot for work and vacations.
But the good news is, you can STILL support animal shelters and rescues!
Here’s how.

Other Creative Ways to Help

Remember, if adoption is out of the question it’s still “paw-sible” to make a BIG
impact!
