It's Coming: Spay Day USA

Grayling T. Kitten says, "Of course I'm spayed -- aren't you?"

According to the Humane Society of the United States, more than SIX MILLION cats and dogs enter shelters in the U.S. each year, and half of those pets end up being euthanized because there just aren't enough homes to go around. The numbers are huge -- so what can one person do to make a difference?

Have your pet spayed or neutered, sponsor the spay/neuter of a pet for a low-income family, volunteer at a spay/neuter informational event -- there are plenty of ideas at the HSUS site for Spay Day USA, coming up Feb. 27. Events are taking place throughout the month of February, and there's even a contest for participants! Check it out, get involved, and leave a comment below to let us know what you're doing to help.

    I was happy to find this on AOL today because every little bit of education helps. I just published a book dedicated the animal welfare world and this subject is absolutely an important contribution!! http://www.animalloversbook.com

    There should be the YEAR of the SPAY and neuter! The education that could come from this, each month would be really awesome. Thanks for talking about it on your journal.
