There are only 4 days left in our International Pet Appreciation Rally fundraising campaign and we are only $14,573 from meeting our goal! Thanks to an extraordinarily generous matching gift from one of our animal-loving friends, your gift today will go TWICE as far to end the Yulin Dog Meat "Festival” and the brutal dog and cat meat trade behind it! The diminishing popularity of the "festival" is one of many proofs that our steady, strategic approach is working and driving the positive change we've been sharing with you. Diminished is good - but not good enough. We must continue delivering animal care, education, and advocacy 365 days a year in Yulin and other dog and cat meat-eating communities. Your contribution today will help save the lives of innocent dogs and cats now and in the future by helping us continue our critical work. Can you pitch in any amount to help? Your support makes ALL the difference. With help from caring friends and animal advocates like you, we continue to reach more and more people in Yulin - and other dog and cat meat-eating communities - with transformational programs that help them embrace dogs and cats as family, not food. Together, we WILL end the suffering of innocent dogs and cats. https://buff.ly/3VO3Qzy #PetAppreciationRally #FamilyNotFood #FriendsNotFood #EndDogMeatTrade #EndCatMeatTrade #StopYulinFestival #DuoDuoProject

Today, we’re launching a project that is very close to my heart. As you can probably tell from the things I post, dogs play a huge role in my life. They bring love, joy, companionship – not to mention the proven physical and mental health benefits. Pets in happy homes is a win-win for the pet and the owner. But not all pets have the care they need, with millions of dogs and cats living on the streets or in shelters. In fact, 1 in 3 pets are homeless.   That’s why Mars set out, alongside leading animal welfare experts, to understand how so many pets end up homeless. And today, we’re releasing open-source data to not only be smarter with the actions we take, but to help others take action too. Moving from treating the symptoms to really solving the root causes.   It's a complex challenge, but understanding the contributing factors is a crucial step so that targeted action can follow. We’re marking the launch with a $500,000 donation to Humane Society International to help fund work informed by the data to support thousands of pets in need.   Thanks to the external partners and Associates leading this work and constantly striving towards: A Better World for Pets.   You can read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/edwJ8XZq.   #abetterworldforpets #stateofpethomelessness #proudlymars

Losing a pet is heartbreaking. The first Saturday in April is Every Day is Tag Day, a nationwide effort created by American Humane to prevent the heartache of losing a pet. DID YOU KNOW? Approximately 10 million companion animals wander away from home each year. Millions end up in shelters. Tragically, only 15% of dogs and 2% of cats in shelters shelters without ID tags or microchips are reunited with their guardians. To Make Every Day Tag Day: > Make sure your pet always wears a collar with a current ID tag, rabies tag, and city/county license. Include a contact name, address, and daytime and evening phone numbers on their ID tag. > Keep your pet’s licenses, ID tag, and microchip current. Make sure to update the tag if you change your address or phone numbers. Microchips add an additional layer of protection in the event the pet's collar and/or tag fall off or are removed. > When moving or traveling, place a temporary tag on your pet with the phone number of someone who knows how to reach you. > Remember that even indoor pets need tags. Many strays in shelters are indoor pets who escaped and got lost. @tailsofhopewpa @americanhumane #MakeEveryDayTagDay #EveryDayIsTagDay #pets #cats #dogs #companionanimal #shelter #tag #license #rabies #microchip #petsafety #petsarefamily #nonprofit #community #love

Extend a Helping Paw to Street Dogs This Winter 🐾❄️ As the winter chill sets in, it's a crucial time to come together and extend a compassionate hand to those who need it the most – our four-legged friends living on the streets. The harsh weather poses significant challenges for these dogs, and your support can make a world of difference in ensuring their well-being. Here are a few ways you can lend a helping paw to street dogs this winter: Provide Shelter: Set up simple shelters or insulated boxes in your community to offer a warm and safe haven for street dogs during the cold nights. A little protection from the elements can go a long way. Food and Water Stations: Place food and water stations in accessible locations. Regular, nutritious meals help them stay healthy, and access to fresh water is vital, especially when natural sources may freeze. Donate Blankets and Bedding: Gather old blankets, towels, or pet beds and distribute them in areas where street dogs are commonly found. These items provide insulation against the cold ground and offer comfort. Educate and Raise Awareness: Spread awareness about the challenges street dogs face during winter and encourage responsible pet ownership in your community. Knowledge is a powerful tool for positive change. Collaborate with Animal Shelters: Reach out to local animal shelters or rescue organizations to see how you can collaborate to improve the living conditions for street dogs. They may provide support, resources, or guidance. Organize Adoption Drives: Consider organizing adoption drives to find forever homes for street dogs. A loving home offers the best protection against the harsh winter elements. Monetary Donations: Contribute to local animal welfare organizations or shelters that actively work towards the well-being of street dogs. Financial support helps them provide food, medical care, and other essentials. Report Emergencies: If you come across a street dog in distress, report it to local animal control or welfare agencies. Quick intervention can save lives, especially during the unforgiving winter months. Remember, every small act of kindness adds up to create a warmer, more compassionate world for our furry companions. By working together, we can make this winter a season of comfort and care for street dogs in need. Thank you for your kindness and consideration. #winter #helpinghands #dogsarefamily #dogslife #kindness
