Senior dogs and cats make a wonderful addition to any family, and in this episode I'm going to tell you exactly why. I've made a list of 7 reasons why everybody should consider adopting an older dog or cat. You may think senior animals don’t have much left to give, but the truth is that they have a lot more life to live, and they’d love to live it in a safe home with a loving family.

Everyone loves adorable puppies and cute kittens, but have you taken the time to think about how much that little ball of fur will be? Kittens and puppies have an endless supply of energy! They chew, scratch and bite. While they do make wonderful additions to most families, senior pets are certainly much easier to care for.

The overpopulation of animals is a serious issue facing our world today, and you can help out by adopting one of the millions of senior pets waiting for a home in animal shelters around the globe. Unlike the surprises that can come while watching younger animals grow, you’ll know exactly what you’re getting when you adopt a senior pet.
