Petfinder Opens Its Foster a Lonely Pet Program

The folks at Petfinder.com having been thinking about superlatives now that it’s holiday time. If you’ve got better ideas — or more ideas — for any of these categories, please share.

Best way to incorporate your pet into the holiday festivities: Throw a tacky sweater party and dress him/ her up for the occasion.

Best stocking stuffer: Petfinder.com’s Pet Promise Certificate. You can give the gift of adoption while allowing the recipient to choose the pet that’s right for them.

Most fun way to keep the pounds off: Exercise with your pet.

Most delicious holiday meal that both you and your pet can enjoy: Turkey. This festive favorite can be a treat for both pets and people – just make sure to feed it to your pet only in moderation. And no bones!

Best gift for pet-loving co-workers: A framed picture of their beloved animal to keep on their desk, or an agreement to swap pet-sitting duties.
