National Specially-Abled Pets Day!

Happy National Specially-Abled Pets Day!

Today, we celebrate differently-abled pets who have overcome tough odds between surviving the elements and finding homes. Join us in encouraging the community to foster, adopt, love, and support differently-abled pets.

Guardians of these special pets, you can celebrate the day by sharing your experience of caring for a pet with physical or behavioral challenges. While there can be additional effort needed to care for these furry friends, the joy is an indescribable reward! Every volunteer at Rhode Island Pet Network has made a specially-abled pet part of our homes, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Interested in making a specially-abled pet part of your family? Check out Petfinder.com, where you can search for local adoptable pets by Care & Behavior and select Special Needs!
