Looking for a new pet? The Michigan Humane Society has hundreds of dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, rabbits, birds and other small animals available for adoption. Somebody Here Needs You.
Pocket Pets
If you're thinking of adding a furry friend to your family, you might want to consider a "pocket pet." Hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, rats, rabbits, and ferrets are some of the most popular pets.
The Value of Adoption
When you think about the value of pet adoption, what often comes to mind is animal homelessness, social responsibility and community improvement - all of which is well founded. However, what is often missed is the economic value of adoption.
Consider adding a feline to your family.
For a long time people believed that cats were great pets for people who weren't home that much. And while it is true that cats don't need to be let outside like dogs do cats are actually very social animals.
Older vs. Younger
When the time comes to pick that "ideal" companion for your family one question always comes up: Should you adopt a puppy or kitten or should you adopt an older pet...maybe one over a year old or so?
