Today is Celebrate Shelter Pets Day, and we here at the Dendler house are certainly grateful for our family of rescued pets. Kimba and Hiro were found in a box when they were only a day or two old, so they never got as far as a shelter, but they were rescued all the same. Samantha and Tabitha (aka Miss Fatty Cat and Slinky) were rescued through Noah’s Ark no-kill shelter in Cypress, TX, when they were a few months old. Max (aka The Big Black Beast) was also rescued from a no-kill shelter that I don’t even remember the name of now when he was a year old. Even Buddy came to us out of the woods behind a house in Livonia, MI, and was with us for many years.
Adopting or buying a new pet is always a risk. You never quite know what you are going to get, so why not take that chance on a shelter pet who desperately needs to be given a home. Send your money and your love to a shelter near you today!
