November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month

November 3, 2009

Senior cats are often overlooked for one of their younger friends, but what most people don’t know is, senior cats can make wonderful companions! There are many benefits in sharing your life with an older pet, so please come visit the seniors at Good Mews and consider adopting one this month!

Good Mews will have a reduced adoption fee of $65 and a gift bag for all senior cats 7 years and older who are adopted during the month of November. Please take advantage of the '2 for the price of one' special which Good Mews is offering on all cats through the end of the year. Visit the Good Mews web site to view pictures and learn more about some of the shelter's senior cats. 

The shelter, located at 736 Johnson Ferry Rd. Suite A-3, Marietta, will be open for adoptions between the hours of 10:00 am and 4:00 pm every Saturday and the 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month between the hours of 1:00 pm and 4:00 pm.

Good Mews has a strong commitment to the practice of spaying and neutering as the most important step in reducing the pet overpopulation problem. Good Mews also promotes public awareness regarding the value of pets, animal welfare, and quality human-animal companionship through educational and outreach programs.
