Hi everyone,
We are excited to announce that next week is Pet Appreciation Week (PAW)! This is a time to recognize and celebrate the important role that pets play in our lives and the positive impact they have on our mental health and well-being.
We know that many of you have furry, feathered, and scaly friends at home, and we want to celebrate them with you! We encourage you to share a photo of your pet in our team #Pet Slack channel. We can't wait to see all of your adorable pets and learn more about them.
In addition to sharing photos of our pets, we will also be organizing a donation drive in the office for the local animal shelter to care for animals in search of their forever homes. Feel free to contribute pet food, grooming items, pet toys, old (clean) linens, new pet beds, or cleaning supplies. There will be bins located in the break room.
We hope that you will join us in celebrating Pet Appreciation Week.
Thank you,

How to celebrate Pet Appreciation Week at work
Pet Appreciation Week is a time to recognize and celebrate the wonderful impact that pets have on our lives. For many people, pets are more than just animals; they are beloved members of the family. This week is a perfect opportunity to show our furry friends just how much we appreciate them.
Pets have been shown to have a positive impact on mental health and well-being. Studies have found that owning a pet can help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. Pets also provide companionship and can help reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation.
In the workplace, celebrating Pet Appreciation Week can be a great way to boost morale and create a positive work environment.
Here are some tips for ways to celebrate:
- Host a pet-friendly event: Consider hosting a pet-friendly event, such as a lunch or happy hour, where employees can bring their pets to the office. Keep in mind, people may have pets of all kinds, so it’s important to poll your employees to see if this is a logical event to host in person or if it would be better as a virtual event.
- Share pet photos: Encourage employees to share photos of their pets on social media or on a bulletin board in the office. Set up a Slack channel to share pet updates all year round. If you already have a #Pets channel, ask everyone to share pictures during Pet Appreciation Week.
- Volunteer at a local animal shelter: Organize a group outing to a local animal shelter to volunteer and show support for animals looking for their forever home.
- Donate to a pet charity: Consider organizing a donation drive for a local pet charity or animal rescue organization.
- Introduce new pet-related perks: Consider offering pet-related perks such as pet insurance or a pet-friendly work environment.
Overall, Pet Appreciation Week is a great opportunity to recognize the important role that pets play in our lives. By celebrating our furry friends, we can all benefit from the positive impact that pets have on our mental health and well-being.
