Who says pets don't celebrate Thanksgiving too? Over 2,700 Thanksgiving meals have been delivered to animals served by Austin Pets Alive! and Animal Trustees of Austin.
Austin Pets Alive! will feed the meals to pets waiting to be chosen for a permanent home, and Animal Trustees of Austin will give meals to the pets that receive low-cost veterinary services at its clinic.
The meals were provided by Nulo, an Austin-based natural pet food company. Each animal's Thanksgiving dinner included Nulo's turkey and sweet potato recipe for dogs, turkey recipe for cats, and cranberry and chicken treats.
“Most people get to take a break for the holidays but our dogs and cats are still here," Sarah Weinstein, Public Relations Manager of Austin Pets Alive! said. "We are thankful that Nulo is helping us during the Thanksgiving holiday so we can have a little extra something for our pets to be thankful for while they're waiting to find their forever homes."
