On February 20, we celebrate National Love Your Pet Day, a day to embrace one special trait that makes us human: our love of our pets! There are many things that differentiate humans from the rest of the animal kingdom, but one of the more unusual behaviors is our longstanding tendency to keep other animals as pets.

Give them an extra hug today or buy them a treat. A little check over to make sure they are ok will make them feel loved on this special day.
