Throughout history, pets have held a firm place in the hearts of their human companions, a bond
National Love Your Pet Day aims to celebrate. Around the world, in times of ease and times of
distress, life simply would not be the same without the loveable critters in our lives. This is just
as a true in the U.S. While estimates are hard to come by, data from the American Pet Products
Association<\/a> (APPA) indicates that around 70% of all households in America had a pet in 2021-
2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Animal lovers rarely need an excuse to shower their pets with love, but those that do need look no
further than National Love Your Pet Day. More than an opportunity to show-off a furry friend,
this special day is all about commemorating the relationship between humans and their pets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
