Every year, six to eight million cats and dogs are put into shelters – and as many as four million are euthanized. And with the drastic economic crisis that hit the United States, our shelters and rescues have struggled to provide for the animals that have been abandoned on their doorsteps.

But with your help, we can change this! By increasing awareness of animal rescue programs throughout the United States, we can reduce the number of cats and dogs euthanized, and reduce the number of animals returned to a shelter who have been rescued.

Recently, Representative Robert E. Andrews (D-NJ) introduced a bill in Congress to designate the first Saturday of every October as National Animal Rescue Day. Please sign our petition in support of this legislation, and tell your representative to promote animal rescue and pet adoption today!
