10 Reasons to Adopt a Rescue Pet

If you are looking to adopt a furry friend you might want to consider adopting from a pet rescue group. Here are 10 reason why:

1. To save a life. Foster homes are only temporary. Fosters parents want to be able to give these furry friends a forever home instead of a pet shelter.

2. To spend money wisely. You get the animal you want and that is worth the cost!

3. A companion. You will be getting a companion that needs your love and will give you love right back.

4. Meet others who share your interest. You will find others who are just as enthusiastic about adopting as you are! They will also be helpful to answer any questions you may have.

5. What you see is what you get! You will get the animal you are wishing for and that is wishing to be picked by you!

6. You'll be screened. Hopefully you won't mind answering a lot of questions, because you will be thoroughly screened to make sure you're the right new parent and forever home. This way they are sure your new furry friend is safe and loved!

7. Spayed or neutered or ready to breed. If you want an animal with no surprises of offspring there are plenty of options! However, if you want to have your furry friend pass on the genes, you can also have that option.

8. Generosity. When you generously give a home to a homeless animal, you create a positive place for the animal.

9. Most animals are up to date on the necessary shots and will be healthy. The rescue group will have made sure that your new furry friend is in good shape. They can also answer any health related questions and personality traits about your new pet.

10. Become a rescuer yourself! By undergoing the process of becoming a foster parents, you may wish to become involved in animal rescue yourself.
