$50 Petco Gift Card Giveaway!
Bringing awareness of stray and homeless animals!
There are so many poor homeless creatures that it just breaks my heart. They are homeless, hungry and longing for some place to call their furever home! It is not their fault they are strays! For whatever reason they ended up roaming around or stuck in the shelters to live their life in a cage.
Please find it in your heart to take these first steps in solving the stray pet problem!!
1) MOST IMPORTANT! Please spay and neuter your pets! There are multiple furbabies born each year that could have been prevented!
2) PLEASE adopt!!! Furbabies from the shelters, or strays, are the most precious and grateful pets to be found. Pets are FOREVER!!! Please consider this before you decide to get a pet! Don’t get a pet for the wrong reasons.
3) Don’t breed! There are so many furbabies in need out there that are just as smart and just as pretty! People get into breeding thinking it will make them money – NOT TRUE! Then they end up with even more unwanted pets, which they turn loose adding to the problem.
4) Donate to your local shelters! Maybe you don’t have money, but they need other items such as newspapers, bleach, soap, etc. Call your local shelter – they can tell you – if you just make that call. The furbabies at the shelter don’t have much – please help them be as comfortable as possible!
Now, for our furbabies here safe at home – we have for one winner a
$50 Petco Gift Card
I would like to say an extra special thank you to our caring sponsor, Copy-Kids for making this promotion possible! Not only are they sponsoring our giveaway, they are donating $50 to help feed stray furbabies in need!
This Giveaway will end Monday 1/14 at midnight ET! Open to US residents only.

No…I wasn’t aware (stray pet problem)
Yes I am and I am also a huge advocate for Spaying & Neutering your pet. Also encourage adopting rather than buying. Being an animal lover myself I wish to spread the word to everyone I can
Yes, very aware! Wish I could adopt more! Great post!
i am aware and it breaks my heart
Yes I am aware.
I sure am aware. I feed & water at least 2 or 3 stray cats daily. I also have a warm box & blanket on my porch if they decide to stay. I wish I could catch them & find them homes but they are too feral. I have 4 inside cats & they are ALL spayed/neutered. Thanks for the giveaway!!
Yes I am aware of the stray pet problem. We live in a small town and this is still a problem. It is so sad. We adopted our kitty from a shelter and she was spayed.

I am aware and I actively support rescues, shelters and adoption. No one needs to buy a pet nowadays there are so many who need homes.
Somewhat…but I probably don’t have a real handle on how serious it is.
Yes I have these feral cats who come around our place and out of six of them, we got 5 fixed and their shots also. The stray pet problem is bad. These cats are friendly although they are feral. It’s a shame they couldn’t have been someone’s pet instead of having to live outside.
yes i am !
yes, we just adopted a cat from the Humane League!
Yes I am aware of the problem. It saddens me that there are so many animals out the without homes.

I am all to familiar with this problem
as a vet tech and shelter volunteer I spread the word asmuch as I can.
yes
Sadly yes-I’ve worked in a shelter for years and seen things that still haunt me. I’ve left due to illness but still actively help in every way I can. Education/awareness is such a huge part of the solution-and PLEASE spay/neuter your pet. There are so many very low cost options/help. Thank you,
Painfully aware of it. I’ve rehomed two kittens that were dumped in the dumpster and three of the four cats I have were strays and the other was at our shelter. He had his eyes removed because the person who had him before us didn’t take the greatest of care of him. We do our best to help out if we can.
to a certain extent yes.
I’m very aware of the problem with homeless animals & am involved in cat rescue. A lot of people aren’t aware that friendly cats living outside very often are lost & have people who would very much like to be reunited with them. That’s why it’s so important to check any tame strays you encounter for microchips & to list them as found at your local animal shelter. There are also true feral cats who are born outside, & it’s essential to spay & neuter any ferals you feed, to avoid ending up with a much bigger cat population.
Yes, my sister works with an organization “Save Ohio Strays” and frequently fosters dogs
Now I am

This would be great to win.
Yes I am aware which is why we adopted our two dogs from the shelter. They automatically had them spayed. they are mother and daughter and we love them!
I am aware of the plight of these poor animals. I make it a point to take my grandchildren to the shelter several times a year to make donations. Cash, food, toys, or just taking the animals for walks around the grounds is greatly appreciated by the staff of these shelters. My grandchildren have learned compassion and responsibility when it comes to animals by seeing firsthand where unwanted/unplanned animals end up. On the upside, we have adopted several furry family members that bring us non-stop joy!
I am aware and concerned. I donate to my local animal shelter.
We have had a couple but been cleaned up fast since we are in a new area.

Yes I was aware I am the very lucky owner of a furbaby that was 5 hours from being put down when he was rescued the previous owner said he was mean because he always was growling and showing his teeth. They had a new baby and were fearful. Well guess what this furbaby wasn’t growling he was talking and as for the showing the teeth he smiles all the time. I kid you not my baby boy gives me smiles constantly and loves hugs and kisses. He is the best dog I have ever had and I will always adopt or rescue. They are the best because they are happy for a second chance.
Yes I am aware of it
I am aware of it
I am, and I adopted two of my three cats from an animal shelter.
Yes I am aware.

Yes I am. It is very sad. We see stray animals all the time where we live.
Not many strays around here
I am aware of a stray problem – though it’s probably worse than I know.
Yes, I have two rescue dogs and foster dogs for my local humane society.
yes i am aware. my pet was a stray and she is now 4 years later still blessing us with love. I am so sadden by the people who toss out their cats and other pets on my lawn and as a single parent on a budget I find that I spend more for pet food then I do for my own personal products. I have been asked why I do not catch and send them to my local shelter and I have been told that just giving them food and water is not properly taking care of them but my answer is that the only shelters around me are kill shelters and with that as the ONLY alternative I will continue to do what i can. It is not only cats and dogs people have released skunks and baby possums in fact one day there was a horse on my lawn and some deer but I did have a good farm come and get those. Just keep praying for me thank you in advance
Yes. Time to crack down
