Just like a fine wine, pets only get better with age. Which is why we are so excited that November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month! 

Though often overlooked, senior pets are just as deserving of loving homes as their younger counterparts. Plus, they’re already set in their ways with their own personalities so, you can likely find a senior who has all the personality traits you’re looking for. Older pets have also likely grown out of their childish habits like accidents in the house and are more likely to settle into a home quicker as they often have past experience living in homes among people and other pets.

This month, we encourage you to leave your expectations behind and open your heart and home to an animal with a few extra birthday candles! Ready to meet your new pet? Check out these ASPCA senior pets looking for someone to love them for exactly who they are!
