Pet Palooza In May!
WANTED: Pet Lovers Seeking Pets and Pet-Friendly Places to Live.
Camden Apartment Communities and the Humane Society Tampa Bay present "Pet Palooza", an event aiming to link pets-in-need with pet lovers and pet-friendly apartments.
Nearly thirty-thousand homeless pets are euthanized each year in Hillsborough County alone.Ê There are simply more pets in need than homes offering to take them in. Knowing this, Camden Apartment Communities wants to show their support for these ÒunderdogsÓ by hosting ÔPet PaloozaÕ and by partnering with The Humane Society Tampa Bay to do it.
The events will feature adoptable pets from The Humane Society of Tampa Bay, micro-chipping coupons for animals adopted during the events, food, drinks, prizes, dog training tips and much more. Admission to the events is FREE to the public and their leashed, friendly pets.
ÒThis is our forth year for Pet Palooza! Not only is it a great way to make the Tampa Bay community aware that all of our apartment home communities are pet friendly and have zero pet weight restrictions, but that we also give back to The Humane Society Tampa Bay,Ó says Brooke Middleton, Regional Marketing Director for Camden Apartment Communities. ÒFor many people these days, their pets are their family. Camden appreciates the strength of the human-animal bond and is proud to be able to provide a home for everyone.Ó
In an effort to help find loving homes for pets, anyone who signs a new pet lease at any Camden community in May will receive no pet deposit and half off their pet fee!Ê Plus, for every new pet lease signed, Camden will donate $50 to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay!
ÒPeople surrender their pets at shelters because their landlords will not allow pets.Ó
Pet owners living in or looking for an apartment will likely confirm it can be difficult to find a suitable pet-friendly place to live. ÒIt is very common to see people surrender their pets at shelters because their landlords will not allow pets,Ó says Cathy Bellatin, Special Events Director of the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. ÒWe wish there were more pet-friendly communities like Camden and we think this event is a great opportunity for pets and pet lovers alike.Ó
ÒWe are aware it is especially difficult to find an apartment community that will accept large dogs.Ó said Middleton. ÒWeÕre proud to say all of our Camden apartment communities accept pets of all weights. In doing this, we believe weÕre helping make a difference in saving the lives of countless dogs and cats by opening the doors of our pet-friendly communities all over the Bay Area.Ó
All twelve Camden Apartment Communities in Tampa Bay are proud to be pet friendly. Camden is one of the largest multifamily real estate trusts (REITS) in the nation with approximately 180 rental communities from Washington D.C. to Southern California.Ê For more information.
