What email and/or phone are adopters seeing?
Did you know that your public email address (if you’ve chosen to show one), the adopters see on each of your pet listings, may not be the same as the email address you use to log in? We understand that email and phone numbers change, so we make it super easy for you to instantly update both your public and log in information! Now is a great time to verify that your public contact information is up-to-date, right here:

Your pet list iFrame on Facebook can now be secure!
If there’s one thing that never changes about Facebook and internet browsers, it’s that they are always changing! Some of their most recent updates caused the Facebook application that allows you to display your Adopt-a-Pet.com Portable Pet List of all your adoptable pets to be blank when viewed in certain browsers. To adapt to that change, we’ve now made all Portable Pet Lists secure! You just need to type an “s” to make your iframe link start with https instead of http.
Haven’t added your adoptable Pet List to Facebook yet? Here’s how:

Purina continues to help feed homeless dogs and cats
Our friends at Purina® Pets for People continue to help shelters and rescue groups with donations feeding 66,010 dogs and cats so far in 2013!
Purina’s support of animal welfare takes the form of Animal Welfare Support programs for non-profit organizations, described in detail on www.PetsforPeople.com. Their programs such as Purina® Pets for 55+, Pro Plan® Rally to Rescue® and the Purina ONE® Pet Welfare Program are dedicated to providing support for local animal welfare organizations in their efforts to find homes for adoptable animals.
Occasionally the Nestlé Purina PetCare Company may have food donations available in your area. When you register your organization on www.PetsforPeople.com you will be automatically considered for any food donations that become available near you. During 2012, Purina donated more than $13 million in pet food and litter. In addition, should your organization be affected by a natural disaster, Purina may be able to provide food to help feed your organization’s animals during your time of need.

And, of course… As always, we thank the wonderful, pet-loving people at Purina and Bayer Animal Health for supporting all of us in our mission and making Adopt-a-Pet.com a free service!
