Our vision is a world where communities unite in support of pets together with their families. Our mission is to make the world a better place for pets by investing in community partners that advocate and care for the well-being of pets and all who love them. We are united as a pack because we believe that to create long-lasting impact in our local communities, we all have our parts to play. Change starts with each one of us, but happens together. If our vision and mission align with yours, we invite you to join us in leading the change for good. PetSmart Charities, Inc. is committed to making the world a better place for pets and all who love them. Through its in-store adoption program in all PetSmart® stores across the U.S. and Puerto Rico, PetSmart Charities helps nearly 400,000 pets connect with loving families each year. PetSmart Charities also provides grant funding to support organizations that advocate and care for the well-being of all pets and their families. Our grants and efforts connect pets with loving homes through adoption, improve access to affordable veterinary care and support families in times of crisis with access to food, shelter and emergency relief. Each year, millions of generous supporters help pets in need by donating to PetSmart Charities directly at PetSmartCharities.org, while shopping at PetSmart.com, and by using the PIN pads at checkout registers inside PetSmart stores. In turn, PetSmart Charities efficiently uses more than 90 cents of every dollar donated to fulfill its role as the leading funder of animal welfare in North America, granting more than $475 million since its inception in 1994.

Our adoptions team is on the move this National Adoption Week! 🚗 We've been visiting our adoption partners in Alberta, Los Angeles, and along the Gulf Coast, to help more pets find their loving homes. Our team members Kerri and Lacey had the joy of fostering Teddy and Bing from the Humane Society of South Mississippi, and treated several pets to fun walks and lunch dates!

Goofball has found her loving home – and she's our 11 millionth adoption. 💙 Now known as Sammy, she's surrounded by love with her adopter, Jon. From shelter pup to foster favorite, and now a cherished family member, Sammy's journey reminds us why we do what we do. And thanks to Hill's Pet Nutrition, Sammy is starting her new life with a full year's supply of pet food! As we kick off National Adoption Week today, you too can change the lives of pets in need, just like Sammy. Stop by your local PetSmart store to adopt and be part of the next million happy tails. 💙

This puppy won my heart - but will he win the "race" to be the 11 Millionth adoption in our in store program? Stay tuned! If you want puppy cuteness (or dog or cat or kitten) in your life, please consider fostering as a way to help pets in your community. Just 48 hours out of the shelter helped Razer find his people! It was enough time to get him started on potty training, learning to sit, and leash walking skills that will serve him well in his new home. And walking around Philadelphia he met so many people that would not have otherwise seen him - so he was able to market himself to potential adopters in a way that an online profile just doesn't do justice. If you're a shelter, please consider all the foster options - day trips, overnights, foster to adopt, everything! And if you're a pet lover, you can help a pet get adopted in just a night or a weekend (and maybe even boost your own social life along the way). Huge shout out to ACCT Philly for getting Razer healthy and ready for adoption, to Homewood Suites by Hilton for being our pet friendly home on the road, and to PetSmart for 30 years of commitment to pet adoption. If you want to see the stories of all of the pets in the running for 11M, follow PetSmart Charities!

There's a mix of excitement and nerves as they step through the doors, hoping today might be the day Razer finds his match. Razer's journey has been filled with growth and love in foster care. Now, he's ready for the next step. Stay tuned as we follow Razer's story and discover what Adoptapalooza has in store for him.
