Home Again Shows its Support for Be Kind to Animals Week

News Flash for Animal Lovers!

This is Be Kind to Animals Week sponsored by the American Humane Association. Officially, the designated "be kind" week started May 3 and ends May 9th, today. Hurry and get involved while there is still time. It's a great day to designate for our animal friends who really deserve kindness every day of the year. This just serves a reminder and I'm grateful to the Home Again Web Site for their efforts in publicizing the event.

Home Again is supporting the Bring Pets Home by making a $1 donation for each companion registered during this time. This is a fundraising Web site specifically created to help shelter animals so visit them and show your support. Do it today or tomorrow even though the special week ends. Their efforts are a worthy cause because they help pets like yours every day of the year and need the support of people like you and me.

Click on www.bringpetshome.com to read about all the wonderful things they do for animals. They support your local shelters and encourage you to be kind to your pet by providing proper ID tags. This is one way to ensure the return of your beloved pet should it wander away. Imagine the heartbreak you would be spared if you took the time to properly tag your animal. They sell products from some big names in merchandise which helps to raise the funds needed for animal programs like this one.

Pets get lost every day and they get injured on the roadways. My husband and I travel and often wondered if the animals who got lost on the road side could be identified. Our questions are often whether or not the animals are wearing ID tags that can properly identify them. If my dog was run over on the highway, as sad as that is, I would want to be notified.

Agencies like Home Again are a blessing to animal lovers and pet owners. You know they have helped recover over 500,000 lost pets. That is amazing! They do more than provide ID tags. Home Again provides essential services like emergency medical attention and they offer members telephone access to their 24 hour lost pet recovery specialists. Now that gives hope if you are the one who lost your pet.

What can you do to be sure your lost pet will be returned to you?

Consider the new microchip form of identification tags for your pet. They don't fall off or get lost so its a guarentee that when your puppy wanders down the street, he will be easy to bring back home.
