November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month

Adopt a senior pet month was created to help older pets find a loving home.  Finding a home for older pets can be tricky. Families coming into a shelter are often looking for a new puppy or kitten. Older pets are often overlooked and can take a backseat to their younger counterparts.

Here are a few benefits of choosing a senior pet for your family. Older pets are usually calmer than puppies or kittens meaning they are less demanding and can be more manageable for a busy family. Often older pets are already experts at performing basic commands, meaning you will not have to train them.

If you are looking to expand your family with a furry companion, consider adopting a lovable senior pet. You won’t regret it.
