Global Cat Day recognizes the need to adopt and/or foster cats. The globally recognized day was initiated in 2001 by Alley Cat Allies.
Cats make wonderful pets. They are independent; playful and potty-trained (all they really need is a litter box). Adopting cats at a local animal shelter gets cats off the streets and gives them a second chance at finding a forever home.
In 2011, there were approximately 600,000 cats in shelters. The number of cats put to sleep fell to 18 percent from 40 percent over the past five years. But still, 20,753 cats were euthanized in Canada in 2016. Imagine how many cats we could save simply by adopting or fostering?
Cat enthusiasts interested in fostering cats will need to speak with a foster care coordinator to learn how to get started. Fostering cats helps cats adjust to life outside of the shelter and helps potential cat owners learn about the cats looking for homes. (EasyPetFence.com)
This Global Cat Day, reduce the number of homeless cats; and consider adopting from a local humane society near you.
