Earth to all: Adoption saves lives… That’s why Battlestar galactica Captain Starbuck badges and number six – Katie Sackhoff (Mandalorian) and Tricia Helfer (Lucifer) – Teamed up with PETA in a video to remind Earthlings to take pets, not buy them.
Galactic heroes can sometimes butt with each other, but they can always agree on one thing: you must be on board with an adoption to become part of their fleet.
Colony 13 (also known as “Earth”) is full of companion pets.
“Even if you’re looking for a specific breed, you can still adopt it,” Sackhoff and her adoptive pug Nelly Bean note in a new PETA video.
It is estimated that at least 25% of dogs in animal shelters are in fact “purebred”. So even if you are looking for a purebred dog or cat, stop by your local shelter. With millions of acceptable purebred and mixed dogs and cats, there is no reason to support breeders, puppy factories or pet stores that deprive shelter animals of the chance to find a home.
Helfer tells viewers that Petfinder.com’s pet adoption database is “similar to online dating, but for adopted pets.”
Take it from these space characters: there are many reasons to accept.
Each adoption means that the animal will no longer wait for a loving home at the shelter. The adoption fee also supports the important day-to-day work that shelters do to help animals, including the provision of vaccines, veterinary care, neutering and neutering, and euthanasia, which are critical to ending pet overcrowding and alleviating suffering.
