Paws to Think About Adoption this Christmas

Paws to Think About Adoption this Christmas

posted in: Features | 0

Twelve of Animal Welfare League Australia’s (AWLA) cutest shelter animals star in the special Purina Christmas video that encourages Aussies to consider responsible adoption of a dog or cat from an AWLA-affiliated rehoming centre or rescue group this festive season.

AWLA’s rehoming centres and rescue groups care for thousands of dogs and cats across the nation every year, with more than 900 currently listed as ready for adoption to a new forever home.

“The festive season is a busy time for animal shelters. We see an increased interest in adoption, which is great, but we are also extremely careful to ensure that people are being properly matched with pets for the long term”, said Stuart Gillies, Interim Executive Officer at the AWLA. “The 12 Pets of Christmas video is our way of showing the adorable dogs and cats waiting to be adopted, highlighting the joy they bring and to remind people that the best animal purchase is a considered one.”

All animals sold through AWLA are personality profiled (including behavioural testing), de-sexed, microchipped, flea and worm treated, vaccinated and have a full health check. AWLA sell both mixed and purebred dogs and cats, aged from puppies and kittens through to senior animals.
