November is 'Adopt a Senior Pet Month'
November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month! Bay Area animal shelters say you can help an old dog, cat or other pet in their golden years by taking one home.
Marin Humane

MARIN COUNTY, Calif. (KGO) -- It's Adopt a Senior Pet Month! Bay Area shelters say you can celebrate by making a big difference in the life of an older dog, cat or other animal in need of a home.

RELATED: From animal rescue to living with a pig and a french bulldog

Marin Humane tweeted a picture of senior pet in need, along with a message.
"Say hi to Stix, a 15-yr-old Bluetick Coonhound mix! Stix is a sweetie-pie who still has plenty of spark left."

The Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA has a 10 year old Leopard Gecko looking for a place to call home.

Local shelters say they have plenty of senior pets who are looking for a warm place to sleep, good meals and plenty of love. So, if you're thinking of adopting a new furry friend, consider opening your heart to an old soul.
