We love Furry Friday! Our favorite animal advocate, Maura Davies, VP of Communications for the SPCA, has great pet care tips and advice. Firstly, spay and neuter your pets! They live longer and healthier lives. Secondly, always ADOPT! Shelter cats and dogs make the best pets. And, they are waiting to go to their furever homes right now! Lastly, consider fostering a pet if you can't adopt. You'll be saving a life and you'll feel good in the process.
