Speedy's Christmas Countdown December 17th with the ASPCA!

Today's post is being shared with ASPCA with some great ideas for the holiday season!
No:1 Adopt,Don't Shop!

Please don't buy Pets from pet shop as as the pets like puppies come from Puppy mills and other such places,Make your first adoption today!Search for adoptable animals by visiting www.aspca.org/adopt
Here in the UK you can visit local rescues and the RSPCA,Dogs Trust...though this time of year in the UK they don't do adoptions because they don't want them being given as gifts and then becoming unwanted again.But don't let that put you off,you can still start the process.

No:2 Help Local Shelters!

You can help by Volunteering your time to help them or find out what the need in supplies www.aspca.org/holiday

No:2 Have a more Humane Holiday Meal!

You can find out more at http://www.aspca.org/labels or by reading the labels when you do your shopping at the supermarket.Look for free range animals and certified products.

No:3 Host a Holiday Sweet Swap!

You could do a cake bake and cookie sale at you office are just with your friend and donate the proceed to your local shelter or rescue www.aspca.org/SweetSwap


And now for an extra Giveaway ASPCA have let me have one Holiday Gift pack for one of you lucky pals to win!
It has West Elm Tea Towel West elm will donate $1 for every one sold
Collapsible water bowl and Puppy dog cinch bag since 2008 Subaru have supported a 1000 adoption events resulting in more than 11,500 adoptions.
Walkers Shortbread cookie tin

  8. Great suggestions.

    One thing that has made me very happy as I've read these posts is I don't remember the last time I saw a puppy for sale in a pet store here. As a child almost every mall had a store that displayed various breeds for sale, but those are long gone. There is one pet store that hosts cats from a rescue to give them exposure and some still sell fish and small animals, but I can honestly say I don't remember the last time I saw puppies or kittens being sold in a pet store and that is progress.

  12. You know that I'm not an adopted cat Speedy. But I don't come from a shop or from a cat's mill. I am an Aby. In France there is no such thing for us.
    My human is vegetarian and eats just organic food. It's very important to do it.

    1. Of course Hisia,Kitties like you have to come from respected cat breeders ,which there is nothing wrong with,and France has it right no puppy or kitty mills,and that is how it should be in every country,xx Rachel
