National Pet Parents Day

About National Pet Parents Day

The last Sunday of April is National Pet Parents Day, a time to pause and reflect on the similarity of pet ownership to the experience of raising a kid, from the good to the bad.

And there are a lot of pet parents - a March 2021 report on Spots.com that found 67% of U.S. homes have a pet, mainly a dog, cat or freshwater fish.
