Adopt a friend

Are you planing to get a cat or a dog?














Please, do NOT buy it because this causes that people can comercialize with the lives of innocent animals.

What would you feel if you were separated from your mother with just a few weeks or even days of being alive and put in a cold pet shop as if you were the new season's outfit?
Well, this is what happens all the time around the world and the only way to end this is by stopping buying pets as if they were toys.

Here's a page's link against puppy mills so you can look for more information of what I'm talking about: http://stoppuppymills.org/inside_a_puppy_mill.html

But, what can I do if I wan a pet?
You can go to an animal shelter. There you can find a lot of pets that need your help and love giving them a second chance to live happily.

ADVANTAGES of ADOPTING:

• This pets are the most FAITHFUL animals you can ever find and that's because they've been through a lot of horrible experiences and are so grateful with his/her new owner that they're going to watch for him/her with a lot of caring love.


• You save a dog or a cat that was abused and give him/her a new opportunity to be loved.


• Most of them are sterilized so there's no problem if you already have another pet at home.


• They get along very well with other pets that you already have.


• You don't pay a cent for a dog that can be of a good breed or maybe not from a good bread but instead you can find a very loving and loyal friend.


• They have no diseases


• They are so CUTE!!!!

Did you know that 20% of the dogs that are on a shelter are from a good breed?

Breeds you can find in a shelter:
Dog breeds:
· French Poodle
· Alaskan Husky
· St. Bernard
· German Shepherd
· Cocker Spaniel
· Labrador Retriever
· Maltese
· Dalmatian
· Fox Terrier
· Among others
Cats breeds:
· Manx
· Ocicat
· Pixie Bob
· American bobtail
· And others

Look for a shelter round your house, there are lots of them, just look in a seeker (Google, Yahoo) for "animal shelter" and then put your city or region and you will find one nearby.

If you want to help but you already have a pet at home or you're not allowed to have one, you can always:
Help other shelters by donating food, medicines, cleaning tools, etc. or visiting it as a volunteer and have a good time with them giving them a little bit of LOVE.

What's sterilization and why is it SO important?
Sterilization is a process in which all the reproductive organs are removed from you're pet so that they can't have any babies. This is really important because it is estimated that there is one stay dog for every 7 people in the world and this animals live in the worst conditions posible, being mistreated, run over, humillated and living with hunger, thirst and sadness.

Did you know that for every 10 puppies or kitties that born, just 2 will find a permanent house where they will find the necesary care?

This is why is so important to help as much as our posibilities can because...

WE CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE !!!
