It’s National Kids and Pets Day!!

OR IS IT? We’re not really sure, to be totally honest, because we’ve been seeing conflicting information as to whether this is celebrated on today’s date or one that was two days ago. 𝐆𝐞𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫, 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐰𝐞𝐛𝐬. But then we remembered that pretty much every day around these parts is a perfect day to celebrate kids and their pets (or pets and their kids!?), so it is ALL GOOD.

Pets teach our children love and compassion, friendship and teamwork, and respect and responsibility. They are their most loyal friends and constant companions in fun and silliness and shenanigans and adventures. They are the keepers of their children’s secrets and dreams and the co-creators of what will be some of their children’s happiest memories—the kind that will stay with them for rest of their lives. If these aren’t things worthy of a little (confusing) online celebration, we have no idea what would be.

Do your kids have a pet bestie? If they don’t, are you thinking of expanding your family at some point with a new kitteh or doggo sibling for them? In case you are, we think today (and, well, also every day) is the perfect time to remind everyone how many absolutely wonderful animals—including the one who is the perfect fit for your family—are waiting at the local animal shelter to be adopted into their forever homes. Adventures and shenanigans and a whole lot of love await!
