April 11th is dedicated to pets. Come prepared to share your favorite pet stories, whether those tales (or tails) are caching related or not.
While most of our pet stories are likely to be happy ones, officially, this day is dedicated to orphaned pets (see below).
"National Pet Day on April 11th dedicates the day to those pets who may not always get the companionship and attention pets deserve. While loving our pets is something we do every day, the observance encourages helping out orphaned pet companions. It will improve their health and enhance their opportunities for adoption."
In the spirit of National Pet Day, I will be stopping at an animal shelter after the event to drop off some pet food. If you would like to add something to my donation, bring it with you to the event. Donation ideas include ...
- Canned Puppy/Kitten Food
- Soft dog treats
- Dog/Cat Toys
- Dog/Cat Collars
