15,000 Pets Need Homes - But Only 66 Are Currently Up for Adoption

Recently, a tweet from user Hiro Yuki has been causing confusion amongst pet owners. The tweet suggested that 15,000 pets were in need of homes at animal shelters across the country. However, this is not the case. While it is true that 15,000 pets are currently housed in animal shelters nationwide, only 66 of these animals are up for adoption right now. The tweet was intended to raise awareness about the need for pet adoption and to encourage people to consider adopting an animal from a shelter instead of buying one from a breeder or pet store. Unfortunately, some people have misinterpreted the message and assumed that all 15,000 animals were available for adoption immediately. This is not true and Hiro Yuki has since clarified his statement on Twitter. The 66 animals currently up for adoption include cats (such as Maine Coons), rabbits and doves. All of these animals have been checked by veterinarians and deemed healthy enough to be adopted into loving homes. People interested in adopting any of these animals can find more information on Hiro Yuki's website here: https://t.co/z8W3GtZ3WV Adopting an animal from a shelter is a great way to give an animal a second chance at life while also helping out your local community by freeing up space in overcrowded shelters. So if you're thinking about getting a new pet, please consider adopting one from your local shelter!
