National Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week

November 14-20, 2010 is National Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week .

Pets of the Homeless participates in bringing attention to the plight of homeless with pets. They are requesting that people bring pet food to their local homeless shelters or other organizations that service homeless people in your town.

Thanksgiving brings out the giving in people; many volunteer to prepare and serve food to humans, in addition to donating food. Homeless with pets sometimes miss out on those grand meals if they can not find a pet sitter while they go eat. Homeless pet owners will often do without to ensure their pets are well fed. So yes, if you have anything to spare, remember the pets as well as their humans.
