September is a pretty serious Pet Month! Mostly it reminds us that there are so many pet issues that we need to resolve. Pets aren’t disposable, they’re part of our families. If you treasure your pets like most pet lovers, see if there’s some way you can help support one of these organizations. And we would like to suggest celebrating HAPPY CAT MONTH! We tend to focus on dogs but love our CATS too!
