Today is International Homeless Animals' Day.  

In 1992, International Society for Animal Rights (ISAR) introduced International Homeless Animals' Day as an innovative educational vehicle with a purpose of informing society of an American tragedy that overwhelms animal shelters each year - pet overpopulation.

Since the conception of International Homeless Animals' Day, ISAR has reserved the third Saturday of August, commemorating the Day annually, to promote new campaigns, programs, and ideas on the solution to the pet overpopulation epidemic: spay/neuter.

In 2008, for the 17th consecutive year, ISAR assisted animal rights/welfare organizations in 26 states and 9 foreign countries in making their International Homeless Animals' Day events a success.

Any animal organizations and interested individuals who wish to assist ISAR in enlightening others about the pet overpopulation epidemic and increase spay/neuter awareness by joining us in commemorating our 18th annual observance on August 15, 2009.

Good post Toula, I also wrote about this a couple of days ago.  Too many of our pets are being abandoned these days.

Hi Toula - What a sweet face on that baby!  Surely no one could resist taking that little one home if he was homeless.  Thanks for the reminder from a fellow animal lover.

Thank you so much for posting information about ISAR's International Homeless Animals' Day. We need to educate as many people as possible about the worldwide pet overpopulation epidemic and its simple solution to spay/neuter.

We truly appreciate your help and support!
