Rescue Animals are TIME’s 2020 Pet of the Year
  • Time Magazine has been switching up their end of the year honors and this time it’s all about the animals.
  • Time has named Rescue Animals are this year’s Pet of the Year.
  • While it has become trendy for people to adopt and foster rescue animals, many say that it benefits both the pet and the human.
  • Psychologist Rachael Silverman says that now is the perfect time to bring in a pet from the shelter. “With so much uncertainty and instability, animals provide people, especially children, with unconditional love, support, and comfort as well as serve as a distraction,” says Silverman.
