Every pet lover dreamed of having the best pet for themselves. Most of us go to the petshop to get those, but did you know that some of the best pets came from the shelters?
If you wish to get yourself a pet and at the same time give a home to an unfortunate lonely creature, the animal shelter might be the right place for you. Not only do they have a great selection of adult animals for adoption, but they also have kittens and puppies, even purebred animals. On average, purebreds account for about 25 to 30 percent of a shelter’s dog population.
You can depend on responsible shelters to assess the dogs health and temperament in order to make the best adoption matches possible. Another advantage is that shelter adoption fees are usually much less than prices at a pet store or breeder.
Don’t be discouraged if, when you first visit the shelter, there are no animals of the breed or type you want. Youth League of Animal Protection (227-1698, www.dogicat.org ) is non-profit animal rescue organization located in Kyiv that provides sanctuary for animals and specializes in caring for stray cats and dogs. The shelter receives new animals every day. The rescued animals are evaluated by a veterinarian, given the necessary medical treatment, and nursed back to health.
All of them are spayed or neutered. Before choosing your pet, you can even speak with an adoption counselor about whether your choice of a particular type or breed is the best for you. On their website www.dogicat.org they display the animals they have available for adoption. You can read about the responsibilities of pet care and adoption forms on the website.
