The shelters are full of young animals
Another misconception that keeps people away from adopting a shelter pet is the fact that they still believe that these animals are very old and could die in any second, but obviously, this is not true!
A study published in the Macedonian Veterinary Review discovered in 2013 that most cats and dogs that are entering the shelter are younger than the average, some being even babies. However, there are a lot of dogs and cats that are available for adoption at any age.
