Adopt a Kitty

July 5th, 2010

Adopt or FosterWhile walking in the Toronto area this ad on a street pole caught my attention, “Adopt or Foster Kitties.”

I am a huge animal lover, but unfortunately I cannot have pets in my building. It breaks my heart to see homeless animals in shelters. I want to do what I can to get them out of the shelter and place them with a loving family. If you, or anyone you know is interested in adopting a kitty please direct them to this website: http://www.petfinder.com

Their site consists of their contact information, shelters in your area and a huge list of cats looking for a place to call home.

I would urge everyone to adopt rather than buy from a pet store. The majority of animals in pet shops come from mills that mass produce animals and purchasing a pet from those places would be supporting animal cruelty. I am sure you are all aware of the term “puppy mill.” Definition: “A puppy mill, sometimes known as a puppy farm , is a large-scale commercial dog breeding facility that operates under substandard conditions regarding the well-being of dogs in their care.. Similar types of operations exist for other animals commonly kept as pets or used as feed for other animals.”

Below is a list of animal shelters and adoption agencies in the Toronto area:

Toronto Cat Rescue
Toronto Humane Society
Animal Services
Adopt-a-Dog
4 Legged Love
Abbey Cat Adoptions
Toronto Pet Network

And in the famous words of Bob Barker, “Remember to have your pets spayed or neutered.”
