Pet Shelters and Animal Rescue Centers Find Homes for Needy Pets With Free Lifetime
Memberships to Petboro.com
Website Features Pet Classifieds, a Pet Services Directory and Advice
ATTLEBORO, MA, July 12, 2006 -- Petboro.com today announced that it is offering free
lifetime memberships to pet shelters and animal rescue centers that would like to
use the pet-listing Website to find families for homeless pets.
Many local pet shelters and rescue centers have small staffs and limited resources,
making it difficult for them to advertise homeless pets on a national level. Pets
often remain homeless when professional caregivers simply can't afford to use
Websites such as Petboro.com to help pair people with homeless animals. Petboro.com
officials hope their free membership offer will effectively help increase adoption
rates by making it easier for shelters and rescue centers around the U.S. to bring
extra attention to their animals.
Petboro.com will give a free lifetime membership to all pet shelters and animal
rescue centers that visit the site to sign up for membership. The site's annual
membership fee is normally $49.99. Shelters and centers will be able to use their
Petboro.com memberships to place online classified listings that advertise their
animals and include photos and Website links. The membership also allows users to
post a shelter profile listing in Petboro.com's Pet Directory and provides access to
the contact form in the 'Wanted Pet' classifieds for people looking for pets.
"We hope that offering free lifetime memberships will greatly help us find homes for
pets that are truly needy and currently in pet shelters and rescue centers," said
Sarfaraz Nasir, president of Petboro.com. "There are so many homeless pets out
there, and we want to do everything we can to find them families."
Shelters and rescue centers that sign up with Petboro.com before July 31, 2006 can
also win donation awards. The grand donation will be a gift of $250 from
Petboro.com, and there will be 10 additional $25 donations, which will be
distributed to shelters and centers randomly selected by Petboro.com.
To sign up for free membership, shelter and rescue organizations need to fill out an
application form and fax their state-issued non-profit certificates to (810)
222-7735. After Petboro.com verifies an organization's application, the organization
qualifies to receive donation rewards. Organizations interested in the membership
program can go to http://www.petboro.com for more information.
