SPOONER, Wis., Nov. 14 /PRNewswire/ — The National Pet Hall of Honor recognizes and celebrates the special bond we have with our pet companions. These “everyday pets” may never make the headlines with a heroic deed or win a ribbon to gain the national spotlight, but they hold a special place in our families and our hearts.
“The National Pet Hall of Honor is a fun place to view pet photos and read stories that range from hilarious to heartwarming,” said Jeanne Joyce, CEO and co-founder of the National Pet Hall of Honor. “It’s really a reflection of how we feel about our pets today. Placement in the Hall of Honor is a source of joy while the pet is alive and can be a very meaningful way to grieve the loss of a pet.”
The National Pet Hall of Honor, http://www.pethallofhonor.com/ , recognizes and celebrates our pet friends with a framed certificate of induction into the Pet Hall of Honor and their own web page with photos and story. Each special pet, whether furry or scaly, is featured in the Pet Hall of Honor by species and breed. Pets featured in the Pet Hall of Honor are for both living pets and as a memorial to pets that have passed on.
In addition, should a beloved pet ever be lost or stolen, members of the National Pet Hall of Honor can post a photo, description, location and other important details on the site. Pet lovers can also browse the site for pet-related retail and online stores, learn more about pet-friendly hotels, submit photos for monthly photo collage themes, and learn more about animal shelters and causes around the country.
Sixty-three percent of U.S. households own a pet, which equates to 69.1 million homes according to the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association’s 2005/2006 National Pet Owners Survey.
