Oftentimes senior citizens are looking for a companion but may be afraid that adopting a pet may be too much for them. Senior pets make the best pets since they are usually already trained and mellow. Senior pets enjoy companionship and are low maintenance, a plus for senior citizens! The “Senior to Senior” program helps match up senior humans and senior pets.
The Humane Society of Central Arizona has an adoption program called “Senior to Senior”; where animals over the age of 7 years old, can be adopted by seniors 60+ years old for a discounted fee.
