Pawprints On Our Hearts: Celebrating National Pet Parents Day April 27

Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty 179530

Paws Up for National Pet Parents Day! 🐾🐶🐱🐾

Happy National Pet Parents Day From Charlotte's Pet Friendly Realtor®

 

"Love Is A Four Legged Word."❤️

... Ricky Gervais

 

It’s National Pet Parents Day — a day to give a big shoutout to all the pet parents who go the extra mile for their fur babies and to the people who treat their pets like family — because, let’s be honest, for most of us, our pets are family.

 

“Until one has loved ❤️ an animal, a part of one’s soul remains un-awakened”.

... Anatole France

 

If you’re anything like me, your pets aren’t just animals you take care of — they’re basically your four-legged kids. In our house, the bond runs deep. Our grown daughter, who’s a pet parent herself, calls our dogs and cats her “brothers and sisters” — and that feels pretty spot-on. We treat them just like we would any of our human family members (sometimes the get even more spoiled!).

 

 “ Animals are reliable, many full of love❤️, true in their affections, predictable in their actions, grateful and loyal. Difficult standards for people to live up to”.

... Alfred Montapert

 

There's something truly special about the bond between a pet and their person. It's pure, unconditional love — the kind of connection that doesn’t need words to be felt. They’re there for the best days and the hardest ones, always offering comfort, laughter, and a whole lot of tail wags or purrs.

 

"No one loves❤️ you as unconditionally as your beloved pet."

-- Cynthia S Dobesh

 

 

National Pet Parents Day is a reminder to celebrate all the little things — the cuddles, the playtime, the silly moments, and even the times we stay up worrying about them when they’re not feeling their best. Being a pet parent is a big job, but it’s one of the most rewarding ones out there.

 

“Animals are such agreeable friends – they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms”.

... George Eliot

 

So here's to the pet parents everywhere — thank you for making the world a kinder, more loving place, one paw at a time. 🐾❤️

 

"Pets are humanizing. They remind us we have an obligation and responsibility to preserve and nurture and care for all life."

... James Cromwell

 

 

Happy National Pet Parents Day To All My Fellow Pet Parents!

 

“Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet”. 🐾🐾🐾🐾

... Colette

Good morning Nina. At present we have no pets but often think of the memories created by our dog now in doggie heaven. Enjoy your day.

Wayne Martin good morning, Wayne... I enjoy my own memories of my cats and dogs going back 70 years.

Not to change the subject but when I heard about Gene Hackman and his wife passing away, I was more disturbed by the poor dog locked in the closet. So sad to me.

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty hi Jeff... I was disturbed by that, as well. I mean, who puts a dog in a closet in the first place?

Hello Nina,  I am so proud of my grand daughter for getting a puppy.  Her mom was a cat person and figure she would be a cat person also.

Will Hamm hi Will... I don't believe they are mutually exclusive. I have both a cat and a dog.

It was JUST the right moment, and lately they haven't been that close when sitting on the couch.

Joan Cox that's so true. This is a gorgeous picture of your kitties. It's like they were posing for you.

Hi Nina- I still remember my first dog...Prissy Missy. Larry and I love our pets but are currently petless...unless you count the squirrels and birds we care for.

Nina Hollander, Broker

Kathy Streib hi Kathy, yours may not be indoor pets, but you treat your birds and squirrels better than many people treat they indoor pets.

It’s been many years since either my wife or I have been pet parents. 
I had dogs and she had dog and cat because of her kids 

Our current life style don’t allow for pets and there are times when I do miss them

Apr 27, 2025 02:58 PM

Ed Silva, 203-206-0754 hi Ed... I get it... certain lifestyles don't easily accommodate being a pet parent.

I had breakfast with friends the other day who have two dogs that they adore, but I sure didn't like them scratching and licking me, haha.

Brian England hi Brian... obviously, your friends have not trained their dogs right. My Bingo doesn't scratch or lick.

Both Gary and I have had pets for a long time....before we met each other.  So far together we've had 4,  Wookie (and adorable shitsu who lived to age 20), Kitty, a fiest cat that lived to 18, Barney, my sweet little assistant who we lost last year at age 18.  And now Norman has been  with us for almost 4 years.  He's is so adorable!  So so sweet!

 

Barney and Norman!  Best buds!

Anna "Banana" Kruchten hi Anna... isn't it just so wonderful to be a pet mom or dad? I can't imagine living without my fur babies! 

Apr 28, 2025 12:25 PM
Nina Hollander, Broker

Anna "Banana" Kruchten good morning, Anna... all of our dogs have come out of shelters as well. And most of my cats, as well.

Apr 29, 2025 04:15 AM
Anna "Banana" Kruchten

I can't imagine either Nina!  And what's odd about my 3 dogs is that all of them were needing a new home as their owners had to give them up and I said.....absolutely I will take them!  All have worked out so well and given us years of love and fun!
