Finding a New Home for Your Pet, takes some thought and consideration prior to beginning your search. **Please remember that just because someone "wants" your pet, doesn't mean that they'll look after your pet. Sometimes when one has an urgency to find their pet a new home, the animal is placed in surroundings that do not meet it's requirements, so please take this into consideration. Depending on why you must find a new home for your pet, can sometimes hinder your thoughts, so we've laid out some suggestions to make things a little less compicated to deal with. Begin by asking Friends and Family On occasion, there may be someone within your social group, who has thought to themselves, "if ever they can't keep their pet anymore, I'd love to bring the pet home with me" - it's worth a try. Co-Workers, Neighbors, even the Grocery Store Attendant you speak to. No harm in asking, just cuz you have a pet doesn't mean that whoever you do speak to, isn't looking. Folks normally don't ask out of the blue "hey, you want to give me your pet? - So ask around. Posters, Posters, Posters! Print up or make posters, preferably with a picture, pictures speak a thousand words in any language. If you can't put a picture, then describe the pet's habits, character, likes and dislikes (likes children, dislikes children but likes adults better, dislikes other animals etc). If your animal is spayed or neutered, that's a PLUS, so add that information if it is accurate. The more you put, the more someone might pay attention. *Ask if you can place your posters in places like: *-Convenience Stores, *-Grocery Stores, *-Community Hall, *-Bingo Hall, *-Health Spas, *-School Newsletters, *-Shopping Mall Entrances even *-Light Posts.

Ask the local Vet if they know af anyone looking for a new (cat or dog) pet. Quite frequently, pet owners discuss the option of taking on yet another pet and inquire how it may effect their first pet. If this is the case, then maybe the Vet will take your number and discuss the option with their client(s). If possible, place an ad in your local or community paper Frequently there is a Free Give-Away Section that costs nothing to post - inquire to see if this is applicable to you. Hang Ten, we'll be adding an example of a poster you can use if you have a printer.....
