About National Specially-Able Pets Day
Celebrated on May 3rd annually, with events around the nation, this day helps educate the public about caring for disabled pets, features disabled animals looking for a home and encourages animal lovers to consider choosing a disabled pet when looking to bring home a new furry family member.
Specially-Abled pets possess a disability, meaning that they may need additional comfort and care from their owners. For example, a dog that has heartworm disease needs a low-energy environment, while a cat that is blind needs a stable and unchanging living space.
