Best Friends’ Top 12 Reasons to Opt to Adopt #RelationshipGoals

Share with fellow cat lovers!

The month of February is a time to celebrate love in all its forms, including the bond between “besties.” In the run up to Valentine’s Day, friends of felines can embark on their own “tail” of true love and friendship by choosing the option of pet adoption.

6Special Adoption Rates

While fans of romantic TV movies are curling up in front of their television sets each evening before Valentine’s Day to watch The Hallmark Channel’s annual small screen celebrations of love, the network (which will soon broadcast Kitten Bowl III!) is helping pals of those with paws find “The One.”

Thanks to a partnership between The Hallmark Channel and Best Friends Animal Society, a national pet adoption event (with pet adoption fees starting at $14!) is taking place through February 15 at Best Friends adoption centers in Utah and Los Angeles, as well as a New York event and at participating No More Homeless Pets Network partners across the country.

Finding “The One”

To help friends of felines find their purrfect match this February, Best Friends Animal Society offers the following online quiz at bestfriends.org/TheOne, as well as a virtual bouquet of reasons for choosing the option of pet adoption in the following tongue in cheek list and video:

  1. Hanging with a pet will give pleasant new meaning to “Netflix and chill.”
  2. A pet’s everlasting love will abolish the fear of ever being “ghosted” again.
  3. Adopting a pet will help put an end to that fear of commitment.
  4. There’s always someone there with a good-morning kiss, even before teeth are brushed.
  5. Walking a cat on a harness and leash is a guaranteed attention-getter.
  6. Chances are a pet will love to spoon and snuggle as much as his person does, if not more.
  7. A new canine companion will give you a valid reason to hang out and meet people at the dog park.
  8. More than 63 percent of people consider pets to be members of the family (according to the AVMA.) So no matter what the configuration of a family unit, pets are a perfect source of love and companionship.
  9. If true love isn’t revealing itself on Tinder, adopting a pet may be the answer.
  10. A pet will help anyone get accustomed to 24/7 adoration and unconditional love.
  11. An adopted pet can help his person become less self-centered, as one learns to put another’s needs before one’s own.
  12. When looking for love, but feeling freaked out by forever, check with a local shelter or rescue to find out about fostering.
