The number of pet guardians needing help has skyrocketed during COVID-19, with individuals affected by job loss and other financial stresses. PetSmart Charities of Canada has worked hard #fortheloveofpets and people to help keep families and their pets together during the pandemic. These efforts include a $55,000 grant to the B.C. SPCA pet food-bank outreach program—enabling the expansion of its COVID-19 outreach response for at-risk and financially insecure individuals. “Sadly, we were seeing cases where people felt they had no option but to surrender a beloved pet to the SPCA because they were struggling financially,” Marcie Moriarty of the B.C. SPCA said. “We want to do everything in our power to support these people so that they would not have to make such an agonizing choice. Our goal is to keep families and their pets together.”
It's National Pet Bird Day—and to celebrate the occasion we'd like to introduce a bird-owner that's part of #LifeAtPetSmart, Cecilia! 🦜🐤🐦🐥 Cecilia adopted Captain Jack (formerly known as Boo Radley) after he arrived at PetSmart Leominster. In these photos, they were getting ready to head home together. It's hard to tell who was more excited! 🥳 Captain Jack the love bird is the newest member of Cecilia's flock family. His new siblings are a pair of cockatiels named Bill & Addie, a pair of canaries named Gemini and Athena as well as 7 parakeets! Sounds like the best nest ever! 😊 💙 #ForTheLoveOfPets #PeopleOfPetSmart #AssociateSpotlight #NationalPetBirdDay

Pets bring joy and comfort to our lives, especially the lives of homebound seniors. To help seniors and their pets live happy and healthy lives together, PetSmart Charities partnered with Meals on Wheels America to distribute $354,500 in grants to 98 pet programs across the country. With this grant funding, senior pet families will be provided with food, supplies, and improved access to care. Together, PetSmart Charities and Meals on Wheels America are combatting social isolation and loneliness among seniors across the country, ensuring that seniors and their beloved pets receive the care they need to age in peace together. ???
