It's Cuddly Kitten Day: 'Purrfect!'

When it comes to holidays, today is going to the dogs....and cats. Not only is March 23 National Puppy Day, it's also Cuddly Kitten Day! While the origins of this annual holiday are unknown, cat lovers don’t need an excuse to give their kitties some extra lovin’. So move over Fido, today also celebrates Fluffy too!

Whether you are a cat person or dog person, today serves as a reminder to pamper your pet. Cuddle and snuggle with your beloved, furry friend. Shower him or her with extra love, a few extra treats or a brand new toy.

If you have been thinking about adding a new member to your family, today is the ‘purr-fect’ day to adopt. Sadly, many animal shelters have seen an increase in pets due to the high unemployment and our current economic conditions. While many are abused, neglected and unloved, more and more kitties and doggies are ending up in shelters through no fault of their own.

Please help save a life and adopt from a local shelter today. Give a kitten (or doggy) the life he or she deserves and a forever home - before it’s too late.
