Support National Animal Rescue Day!
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!
Subject: Support National Animal Rescue Day (H.Res.767)
Dear Representative,
I am an animal lover and I support Representative Robert Andrew's efforts to designate the first Saturday of every October as National Animal Rescue Day (H.Res.767). As many as four million dogs and cats are euthanized in animal shelters every year. This loss of animal life is tragic, and a National Animal Rescue Day would help to promote both the need for pet adoption as well as educate and raise funds for spay and neuter programs to reduce animal overpopulation.
[Your personal comments will be added to this letter.]
Please help save homeless pets by supporting a National Animal Rescue Day.
