November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month, a time to celebrate the deep and unconditional love senior pets bring into our lives. 💜 Here at KONG®, we believe every animal deserves a warm, loving home, regardless of age. Senior pets, with their gentle spirits and wise eyes, have so much love to give, yet they often wait the longest for a family to call their own. 🐾

We are profoundly grateful for those who welcome older pets into their homes, offering them a safe and joyful place to spend their golden years. For those of you with room in your heart, consider supporting senior pets this month—through adoption, fostering, or by simply sharing quality time and companionship with them. 💜

Please also reach out to your local shelters and rescues to see how you can help. Even small acts, like donations or volunteer time, make an immense difference in the lives of these wonderful animals. Together, let’s make sure every pet knows the warmth of a loving family, especially those waiting for a second chance.

A huge thank you to everyone and their adorable fur friends who made it out to our KONG Day celebrations across the US! For 48 incredible years, KONG® has been bringing joy to pets' lives, and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than with you all. 🐾

For nearly half a century, we've been dedicated to making tails wag and purrs echo in homes everywhere. This year, we wanted to celebrate the pets that fill our hearts with joy and shine a spotlight on the amazing dogs and cats waiting for their forever homes at the rescues and shelters that joined our events.

We’ve been a beloved staple in pet households for 48 years, and we’re beyond grateful for your support. To show our appreciation, we decided to give back in a big way. This KONG Day, we proudly donated to a number of incredible organizations, including:

🐶 All Aboard Animal Rescue & Shelter
🐾 Colorado Saint Bernard Rescue -CSBR
🌟 My Fairy Dawg Mother Rescue
🐕 MaxFund No-Kill Animal Shelter and Adoption Center
🐱 Colorado Pet Pantry
🐾 Front Range German Shepherd Rescue

A huge shout out to Denver Beer Co Paws and Pints and Kahoots Feed and Pet for hosting all the KONG Day Fun!

But that’s not all! Thanks to our wonderful KONG partners who teamed up with us for KONG Day Giveaways on social media, we were able to extend our love and support to even more shelters and rescues all across the United States. 🎁

At KONG, our mission has always been to bring joy to pets around the world with our wide range of mentally stimulating, tail-wagging toys. We believe that playtime is essential, not just for fun, but for the well-being of our furry companions. That’s why it’s so rewarding to make a positive impact beyond just toys.

Our hearts are full seeing the happiness KONG brings to pets and their families, and we are driven by the joy and laughter that our toys inspire. It’s not just about making toys; it’s about making a difference in the lives of pets everywhere. 🐾❤️

Thank you for being part of the KONG family and for helping us make these 48 years so special. Here’s to many more years of fun, laughter, and wagging tails! 🐶😺🎉

🐾Let's talk about Cat Scratch Fever!🐾

Do you know how important cat scratchers are in your home?

Scratchers are essential tools for enhancing your cat’s enrichment. Not only does this natural behavior help with their nail maintenance, but it also allows them to communicate by marking their scent and showing excitement! Scent marking helps cats feel safe and secure by marking their territory. Cats will often incorporate scratching into their play sessions, making it a good form of movement and exercise. Scratchers can also provide a great outlet for overstimulated cats, directing their energy to an appropriate outlet and relieving stress.

KONG Story

Over forty years ago, Joe Markham was working on his VW bus, he tossed a rubber car part to his beloved German Shepherd, Fritz, to distract him from chomping on rocks and destroying his teeth. Fritz went crazy over the erratically, bouncy, irresistibly chewy car part.

A few modifications later, including added durability and the KONG Classic was born.

KONG was created in 1976 to help one dog. Since then, KONG toys have solved the needs of millions around the world.
