7 Ways You Can Celebrate National Pet Month

This May we're celebrating the furry friends that bring us together by breaking down barriers.

1. Get a Checkup from the Vet.

Pets below the age of ten should be getting a checkup at least every year and those over ten, at least every six months. But, all pets are different, so take your vet's advice on the best way to care for your friend.

2. Head to the Groomer.

Depending on the climate, a trim in the summertime is a good idea to keep your friend feeling comfortable.

3. Shop for a Friendship Collar.

Personalized and affordable, these matching bands are the perfect way to show the bond you share with your pet.

4. Arrange a Pet Marriage.

Summer is a hot time for weddings, pets included. Seriously, it's a growing trend and the pictures you'll get from it are worth the effort.

5. Spend Some Time in the Ball Pit.

Just imagine the joy your friend will get from being totally immersed in their favorite toy.

6. Do all of the Above at a One Life Festival.

On May 28th, Purina is throwing ten parties across the U.S. for the pets that bring us all together.

7. But First, Download the Many Walks App.

Use the app to take a walk with another pet owner and you'll get free access to the concert at a One Life festival. Happy National Pet Month!
