On April 30, 2010, the US Postal Service will issue a 44–cent, Animal Rescue: Adopt a Shelter Pet special stamp in ten designs, designed by Derry Noyes of Washington, DC.
With these 10 stamp designs, the U.S. Postal Service hopes to raise awareness of the need to adopt shelter pets.
Photographer Sally Anderson-Bruce found these beautiful, adopted pets in her hometown of New Milford, Connecticut. Each of these animals was given a good home thanks to animal rescue shelters and the families who adopted them.
Ellen DeGeneres is a huge animal-rights supporter, and as a partner for this campaign (along with her pet food company, Halo), she was the first to unveil the stamps on her show.
You can pre-order the animal rescue stamps now! You can also get cute mugs, coasters and artwork with these adorable designs. You can get the stamps in your local post office on April 30, 2010.
If you’re thinking of adopting a pet, I recommend Petfinder.com (I can spend hours on that site!). Check this link for more info on adopting a pet.
