Hospitality to a stranger is one of the greatest themes of the holidays. What better way to welcome a stranger than to invite a homeless pet to join your family?

This is the season of compassion and joy. Adopting at the holidays allows those sentiments to continue year round – each and every time you are welcomed home by a wagging tail or start your morning with the sound of a loving purr.

Despite myths to the contrary, the holidays are a wonderful time to introduce a new pet to your household. We find that pets adopted during the holidays are more likely to have found a permanent home. The extra time families have away from work and school are beneficial to forming a bond, allowing time for the pet to adjust to his new environment and meet and spend time with all members of his new family.

If you’re not quite ready to select a new friend, a gift card from the Lora Robins Gift Shop can be applied toward adoption fees and a leash and collar or other pet-centric gift would make a great “hint” to place under the tree.
