Keep the pet…

We received this email today and wanted to pass it along – so many people assume that when they have a child, they’re going to have to surrender their pet. Often they’re concerned the pet will be lonely or jealous, a danger to their child or simply too much overhead.

If only they could cast their minds back to the companionship and security a child feels with a family pet; and the lessons learned of unconditional love, loss, responsibility and joy.

So the next time you hear someone say they have to get rid of their pet when they have a child, please show them these photos and help them understand what a valuable and beautiful part of growing up it is to have and love a family pet.

Within the heart of every stray

Lies the singular desire to be loved
