Iams “Home 4 the Holidays” Adopt a Pet Campaign

7-ih4th copy

As an animal lovah, I fully support the wonderful people over at Iams with their yearly “Iams Home 4 The Holidays” campaign. I was recently contacted to share some important information with my readers about the need to give animals loving homes. Here are the cold hard facts:

  • As many as 8 million animals are homeless in the U.S.
  • Nearly 4 million orphaned dogs and cats will be euthanized this year due to shelter over-crowding and lack of awareness about the importance of pet adoption.
  • More than 25 percent of all dogs in shelters are purebreds.
  • IH4TH helped 1,202,751 pets find homes last year alone.
  • In Oct. 2008 Hilary Swank adopted Rumi through IH4TH at a Los Angeles shelter.
  • Over the past decade more than 3 million pets –1,638,515 dogs, 1,505,690 cats and 134,062 “other” animals – have been adopted through IH4TH.

The goal this year is for this campaign to help find 1.5 million pets loving homes. If you have the space in your home and a loving heart, I would encourage you to adopt a treasured friend.  Click on the link below  if you would like to find out more information:
