October is Adopt A Shelter Pet Month
category:Clubs and Organizations posted:January 2nd, 2006What has four paws, a cold nose and a warm heart? An animal companion, that’s what! If you’ve been thinking about getting a pet, consider bypassing the expensive “boutique” breeds and instead, bring home a friend from your local shelter. There are thousands of animals in need of a loving home – and those folks who’ve gone the “rescue route” will tell you that it’s a truly rewarding experience for everyone involved.
Here are some tips for finding the perfect shelter pet:
1) Give yourself time at the shelter – AT LEAST a half hour. Some animals are shyer than others and may need some time to warm up to a person. Watch their interaction with other animals and people, their general energy and interest level.
2) Kittens and puppies are oh-so-cute, but consider adopting an older animal. They tend to be housebroken, calmer and used to people.
3) Shelters do the best they can to determine the health of an animal, but in many cases, medical records are not available. Be prepared to take your new friend for a checkup ASAP. If you have other pets at home, a temporary quarantine of the new animal in a separate room is a good idea until you know their situation.
4) Ask about discount rates on spaying, neutering, shots and/or microchip identification. Many shelters have arrangements with local veterinarians to provide these services. Before you cringe, spaying and neutering greatly increases the lifespan of companion animals as well as their (and your) quality of life.
5) Consider your lifestyle: will you be away from home during the day? It might be worth getting an additional friend to keep your pet company, ideally from the same litter. Provide food and water, toys and room to play to keep them happy and well-behaved.
6) When you bring your new friend home, make sure small children know how to properly handle and care for them. You might try gradually introducing them so no one makes a bad “first impression.” If you already have animals at home, keep the new pet in a different room for a day or so and allow other pets to “smell” them through a closed door. Supervise their introduction, and be sure to give the older pet lots of attention so they don’t feel upstaged.
If you can’t bring a pet home, consider supporting your local shelter with either cash donations, supplies (they usually have a list of things they need) or volunteering your time. You’ll get back far more than you put in!
