National pet adoption day
NATIONAL PET ADOPTION MONTH
With cats dominating the adoption landscape, closely followed by large dogs and bonded pairs, PETstock Assist is encouraging would-be pet owners to Adopt Different this March - to adopt animals who are most in need.
Throughout March, PETstock Assist will celebrate its annual National Pet Adoption Month, to help change the lives of rescue pets and humans and break the cycle of pet homelessness in Australia. All pets deserve a safe and loving home, and National Pet Adoption Month is the perfect opportunity to adopt or foster a cat that needs you, a pair that is bonded for life, or a dog with more to love in an effort to break the cycle of pet homelessness in Australia.
New pet owners and animal lovers across Australia are being urged to engage with their local PETstock store and rescue group throughout March for further information on the adoption or fostering process. To find out more, or to check out a PETstock store located near you, head to www.petstock.com.au or to begin the search to become a rescue pet parent or foster carer please visit www.petrescue.com.au.
How it works:
PETstock provide space in their stores for animals in need of a new home
They make free space, temporary or permanent, available in-store for rescue groups to find forever families for adoptable pets. This gives potential pet parents the chance to meet rescue pets in a positive, convenient and friendly environment.
In no way does PETstock profit from the program
100% of all adoption fees go straight to the rescue group. These fees cover each pet’s desexing procedure, microchipping, vaccinations and parasite control, and a thorough medical and behavioural assessment – all of which happens before each pet is adopted!
Adoptions are done by rescue members who know their animals the best
Rescue groups provide potential adoptees with information they need about adopting a particular pet, as well as provide support to new adoptees to introduce their new pet into their family.
