Hill’s Pet Nutrition has declared January 24th “Change a Pet’s Life Day.” On this day, in an effort to promote the adoption of millions of homeless pets, Hill’s will pay for the first ten adoptions at 300 of its partner animal shelters across the United States. They will also send new owners home with free Science Diet dog food (Hill’s donates free Science Diet food to shelters across the country to help get pets nutritionally ready for adoption). Teaming up with Hill’s is Kyra Sedgwick, star of TNT’s The Closer. As a lifelong animal lover and owner of adopted dogs, Sedgwick aims to raise awareness of pet overpopulation and encourage pet adoption and rescue.
There is also an interview with Kyra Sedgwick by the same blog author above. The big day is tomorrow and there’s events everywhere, possibly near you as well! To find a participating shelter you can use the search on feedingisbelieving.com.
Tell us your adoption story. Especially if you get out tomorrow and adopt an animal with the fee waived, change a pet’s life.
