National Pet Volunteer Week
If we had a calendar with every “special” day, week and month noted, there wouldn’t be room to jot information about an upcoming dentist appointment! Truly, there are “national this-and-that’s” for some of the most interesting things.
One you won’t want to miss, though, is the week of April 27-May 3, which has been designated “National Pet Volunteer Week.”
It’s the perfect time to thank the self-sacrificing individuals who volunteer at your area pet shelters and animal welfare organizations. You might also look into becoming a volunteer yourself. Springtime with the kitten boom in high gear demands lots of eager, willing hands to help. The kittens you play with and socialize today have a much greater chance of being adopted into a loving forever home.

Volunteer--save a life! You’ll feel good about it, I promise.
