November is 'Adopt a Senior Pet Month'

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.
