Animals :: Petsmart Charity :: Hurricane Katrina Rita
Each year, up to 10 million pets are brought to animal shelters. An estimated 4 million of those pets are euthanized -- that's nearly 11,000 pets per day. These numbers are heartbreaking, especially since many of these pets are euthanized simply because loving homes could not be found for them.

Saving pets lives. That's the heart and soul of everything we do.
Through our adoption programs alone, we save a life every two minutes. In addition, all the programs we create and animal welfare agencies we support help to end euthanasia while promoting healthy relationships between people and pets.

To help address pet overpopulation and as part of PETsMART's conscious decision to not sell dogs and cats in stores, PETsMART Charities, Inc, was established in 1994 as a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization to champion the cause of saving the lives of homeless pets. Since 1994, PETsMART Charities has become a leading funder of animal welfare agencies across North America, donating more than $35 million to animal welfare programs and helping to save the lives of more than 2 million pets and counting through its support of more than 700 adoption centers inside PETsMART stores.
