Animal Shelters and Adoption Centers

Did you know that 25% of the dogs that enter shelters are purebreds? Or that 1/3 of pet cats are originally strays?  There are many animals in the United States, and in the world, in need of a home.  From volunteering at a shelter to fostering or adopting an animal, there are plenty of ways to help.  www.petfinder.com has listing of shelters all over the country where dogs, cats, and other animals are waiting for a new home.   Adoption fees are very reasonable and the joy of having a pet is priceless.
