A Furry Christmas

As the weather gets colder and snow begins to cover the ground, we’re all starting to spend more time at home keeping warm. This weekend, we saw our first snow here in Manitoba and it’s just the start. I was watching the snow while reviewing old emails I hadn’t dealt with yet when I came across a press release for the Iams Home 4 the Holidays program.

There are currently 8 Millions homeless pets in the US. The goal of the Iams Home 4 the Holidays program is to place 1 Millions homeless animals into loving, forever homes over this holiday season. The program, founded by Helen Woodward Animal Center and supported by Iams has been running for 10 years and now involves 3,000 shelters in 15 countries around the world.

As part of the program, this year every cat, dog, puppy or kitten that is adopted during Iams Home 4 the Holidays will go home with an Iams Adoption Starter Kit that contains food samples, coupons and important tips and information about pet care, behavior, training and nutrition.  What a great way to get started!

Pets make a great Christmas gift for families. A pet can give you a playmate for your child and help teach them compassion and responsibility. If you are thinking about giving your child a pet this Christmas, check out the Iams Home 4 The Holidays program!
