Love at First Meow
During a National Adoption Week event, a family visited a PetSmart store to meet adoptable pets at the in-store adoption centre.They were hoping to find a companion and planned to take their time getting to know the pets.
Then they met Lucy.
The moment she saw them, Lucy ran right up to the window. When they stopped to say hello, she brushed against them and greeted them with a sweet meow. In that instant, they knew she was the one.
They adopted Lucy that same day.
Support from donors helps create moments like these by connecting pets in need with loving families through adoption events and partnerships with animal welfare organizations across Canada.
A Companion for Life
Today, Lucy is a constant source of comfort and companionship. She follows her family from room to room, always wanting to be close by. Her affectionate personality has earned her a special nickname: their little shadow.
Stories like Lucy's show the lasting impact of adoption. When pets and people find each other, lives change for the better. Through adoption programs supported by PetSmart Charities of Canada and its partners, more pets can find the loving homes they deserve, and more families can experience the joy of welcoming a new best friend.
