A PET FOR CHRISTMAS OR A FRIEND FOR LASTING LOVE

PLEASE 

DON'T BUY A PET FOR CHRISTMAS

The person you intend to please,

May not like your choice,

or 

May not be able to care for him or her,

And before long,

That little soul will be mistreated,

or 

Abandoned

To a tragic fate.

If you do decide to get a pet for someone,

Please find that precious dog or cat

At a shelter.

There are millions,

Yes, 
Millions of pets need a loving home.

Don't go for pedigree:

Choose love.

Please.
