When is National Pet Month?

Our pets undoubtedly deserve to be celebrated all year long, but National Pet Month is observed in May. It begins promptly on May 1st, so mark your calendar for the occasion!

So when is National Pet Day, then?

National Pet Day, on the other hand, is celebrated annually on April 11. But regardless of whether or not you did anything to mark the occasion, there’s never a wrong time to give some extra love (especially with some belly scratches) to your furry friend!

What are the origins of National Pet Month?

In 1981, the United States established May as the month to honor the bonds between humans and their beloved pets, and in 1991, the United Kingdom began recognizing National Pet Month, too (although it’s celebrated in April in the UK).

How to celebrate National Pet Month (Fetch can help!)

There’s no right or wrong answer for how to celebrate National Pet Month, so long as you are having fun with your animal companion and honoring their interests! Here are some fun ways to partake throughout the month of May:

  • You can’t go wrong with a classic such as cuddling and binging your favorite show together!
  • Get your doggy paddle on with a visit to the lake.
  • Indulge your dog with a game of fetch (which Fido is sure to enjoy even if it’s not yet National Fetch Day) or your cat with a game of hide and seek! They will appreciate the effort to encourage their most basic and natural instincts!
