Share a favorite photo of your pet on social media today (Sept. 22) to help raise awareness for pet adoption through the annual Remember Me Thursday campaign. Its goal is helping orphan pets find forever homes rather than die waiting for them.

Mike Arms, president and CEO of the Helen Woodward Animal Center, created the event in 2013. Millions of people will participate globally using #RememberTheRescue on social media — including celebrities.

If you’re a fan of NCIS, you’ll be excited to know that Pauley Perrette is this year’s spokesperson. For more information, visit the Helen Woodward Animal Center and the Remember Me Thursday website.
