"I Adopted a Pet" Wristbands Available at Animal Antics
Fashionable Wristbands Show Off Animal Support

MILWAUKEE ? Animal Antics, a companion animal supplies store located in the Wisconsin Humane Society, is selling ?I Adopted a Pet? wristbands, which mirror the Lance Armstrong ?Live Strong? wristbands. The first shipment of these fashionable bands was quickly sold out, but the store now features more bands available for sale.

The rubber wristbands retail for $2.95 each and benefit animals at the Wisconsin Humane Society. The goal is to both raise money for companion animals and also spread the word that wonderful animals are available at animal shelters and adopting one of them will provide you with a lifetime of rewards.

"If you are the guardian of a companion animal or simply have a fondness for animals, this wristband is just for you," said Michele Tegen, retail supervisor of Animal Antics in the Wisconsin Humane Society. "I encourage companion animal lovers to proudly wear these bands and express their love of animals."

Wristbands are going fast, so show your support and purchase one today! To purchase a wristband or for more information, visit Animal Antics or call (414) 431-6221 . For information about animals currently available for adoption at the Wisconsin Humane Society, call (414) ANIMALS or visit www.wihumane.org .
