Everyone loves pets, well at least everyone reading this blog! But not everyone can be a pet owner. There might be restrictions with your housing, or someone you live with is allergic, but don't let minor things like that deter you from showing your love for animals!
So if you feel like doing a selfless good deed like Clifford up there, here are some ideas:
* Contact your local rescue groups if there are any bills on the table regarding animals in your community or state. If there are any, find out the issues and send a letter to your representative.
* Volunteer at a rescue organization
* Donate materials to shelters and rescue organizations
* Make a donation of money to a national rescue group
* Volunteer to forward "help find a new home for" type emails from a reputable rescue organization.
* Think about naming an animal rescue organization in your Will.
* Volunteer at a local animal shelter
* Consider fostering a pet belonging to an active service member, about to be deployed
* If you work in a medical setting, a nursing home or rehabilitation center look into setting up a program using therapeutic animals.
* If you know someone facing illness, divorce, or foreclosure care for their pet until they can get settled again.
* The next time you invite a friend or relative for the weekend, invite their pet as well.
