How you can help homeless pets
Everyone deserves a home — and that includes pets in shelters. You can make a lifesaving difference for animals waiting for homes of their own.
When animals don’t have a home, they’re at risk of being killed. In fact, a dog or cat is killed in America’s shelters every 90 seconds just because they don’t have a safe place to call home. But there are so many ways you can help change that.
Walmart has named Best Friends their collaborator in celebration of National Pet Month this May — we're teaming up to bring happy home for homeless pets around the country!

No-kill is within reach, thanks to you
You can save the lives of dogs and cats in shelters in your community when you adopt, give, and use your voice to protect homeless pets.

Bring happy home: Our new collaboration with Walmart
This May, pets get the spotlight in Walmart stores across the U.S., including stores in communities like yours.

Help your local animal shelter or rescue group
At Best Friends, our goal is to get more dogs and cats out of shelters and into homes and make every shelter in America no-kill. Each and every one of these shelters needs caring people like you to adopt, foster, donate, volunteer, and advocate to help save the lives of pets in your community.

About Best Friends Animal Society
Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.
We'd love to see your pet living their best life! When you share your favorite video or photo of your pet at home, we’ll use it to inspire others to bring their best friend home.
