#petsnotjustforchristmas @rspca_offcial @marcthevet @dogstrust @pdsa_hq @PaulManktelow Sadly pets will always be given as present on a whim- and some pets end up in happy homes, others end up in the shelters a few months later. Remember if you do buy a pet this year - be cartful of Pet shops and Breeders that are just trying to make money! Most honorable shops and breeders will ask you to buy after Christmas, and refuse sale in Christmas week.
So if you do get a pet this year make sure it will be cared for! Make sure you know how to care for it! Insure it to reduce hidden costs! Take it to the vet right away to make sure its healthy and not been poorly breed just Christmas profit for breeders or shops!
