ASK PRESIDENT OBAMA TO PROCLAIM ADOPT A SHELTER PET DAY

October 11, 2010 by Tina Evangelista-Eppenstein

We animal advocates know President Obama did not keep his promise and adopt a shelter dog for his daughters BUT he can still make an impact on shelter animals with our urging.
Animal advocates are asking to send a letter via email or snail mail (letters) to Obama to proclaim April 30th, National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day. Click on the link below and it will tell you how you can participate in this goal.
These animals need our voices! Whether you send an email or an actual letter, YOU can make a difference in the lives of shelter animals but they need our voices!
Many thanks to Erich Trapp of 2dogs2000miles for bringing this cause to my attention.
Freekibble is partnering with Tails Magazine, in an effort to raise awareness AND kibble for shelter pets. Our goal is 100,000 emails sent to the President asking for a Presidential Proclamation for a National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day (http://www.freekibble.com/lettersforpets/ – by the deadline of September 30. Thanks to Halo, Purely for Pets, we’ll be donating a nutritious meal to shelter dogs and cats for each email – up to 50,000 meals!
{Stop the Press! We’re re-opening Letters for Pets to get to 300,000 letters sent to the White House for Adopt a Shelter Pet Day! Please keep sending them and help us reach our new goal – 3 x’s the original goal of 100,000!} HUGE THANKS to EVERYONE}.
