With the increasing number of adults waiting until later in life to start a family or opting to go childless, the number of homes in which child-free couples treat their pets like children has grown substantially. Once considered in poor taste, I now know few who won’t allow their dogs, cats and other furry creatures on the furniture or to sleep in their beds. This means the number of Pet Moms has grown and not unlike real moms, they also spend a lot of time, money and effort to give their ‘babies’ the best life possible. So we felt they too deserved to be honored with gifts for Dog and Cat Moms on Mother’s Day.

Gifts for Dog and Cat Moms on Mother’s Day

Gifts for Dog and Cat Moms on Mother’s Day? Yes, please.
Statistics have shown that a growing number of adults are waiting until at least 30 before considering children and an increasing percentage are choosing to forego children altogether. Conversely the number of adult households with a dog or cat as their chosen child has increased. This means there are a lot of people out there pulling dog duty and cat raising.
