Dear Friends, There are few things in life as comforting as the companionship of a dog or cat. Who can resist the enthusiastic greeting of a dog happy to see you or the gentle purring of a cat asleep on your lap? In return, all they need from us is the promise of a safe and loving home. Sadly, as a nation we don’t always uphold that promise. An estimated 8 million pets annually need our help to find homes. Whether born into an unplanned litter or abandoned by their owners, these pets deserve the lifelong, loving homes that the work of PetSmart Charities® helps provide. A better life for these pets begins with YOU; our supporters who recognize the value of companion animals and the need for programs that improve their well-being. In 2011, our Emergency Relief Waggin’® Program responded to a record number of calls for help. Our Emergency Relief Waggin’ 4 vehicles completed 16 deployments, including the tornadoes in Joplin, the flooding in the South, and largescale puppy mill and hoarding cases across the nation. Teaming up with the ASPCA®, HSUS® and local animal-welfare groups, our Emergency Relief Waggin’ Program provided millions of dollars worth of supplies and equipment to aid pets and rescuers. As we met the demands of so many disasters, we also had cause to celebrate as well. In 2011, we transported our 50,000th dog on a Rescue Waggin’® vehicle. The Rescue Waggin’ Program is a national initiative that transfers adoptable dogs and puppies from animal shelters in communities with severe pet overpopulation to animal shelters elsewhere where adoptable dogs and puppies are in demand. Dawn, a beautiful 7-year-old Golden Retriever, was the 50,000th dog to take that life-saving ride. She is among the thousands of dogs transported on Rescue Waggin’® vehicles each year in search of a new home. We change thousands more lives annually by facilitating the largest collective adoption programs in North America. To date, we have found homes for nearly 5 million pets through our PetSmart Charities® Adoption Centers located inside every PetSmart® store. These Adoption Centers are made possible through collaboration with PetSmart, Inc., which generously provides space in their stores for thousands of local pet adoption agencies to use. From everyday in-store adoption programs to four National Adoption Weekends, 65 Community Adoption Events, and the opening of nine new Dog and Cat Everyday Adoption Centers inside PetSmart® stores, animal-welfare agencies receive free space for their adoption programs and rewards for every pet adopted through these events. Because we believe sterilizing pets is critical to ending pet overpopulation, we also provide grants to help animal-welfare agencies develop and expand their spay/neuter programs. In 2011, we gave more than $13 million in grants to support low-cost, high-quality spay/neuter programs in communities nationwide. As we expand our programs to end pet homelessness, we are thankful for people like YOU who support our mission. Your strong commitment and the passion of the animal-welfare community inspire us to do more to save pets’ lives. We know we can only be as strong and successful as the people who support us. Thanks to YOU, we can continue making a difference in the lives of millions of pets. To build the capacity of these groups to operate spay/neuter clinics, we teamed up with the ASPCA to support the Humane Alliance—the leader in training spay/neuter professionals. We also sponsored The Humane Alliance’s SNIP! Summit, a conference attended by more than 850 spay/neuter professionals. Philip L. Francis Chairman of the Board PetSmart Charities, Inc. Susana M. Della Maddalena Executive Director PetSmart Charities, Inc. 5 When dogs and cats need homes, help local shelters expand their outreach. YOU 6 ADOPTIONS Community Adoption Events PetSmart Charities® facilitates the largest collective adoption programs in North America. Since 1994, PetSmart Charities has helped nearly 5 million pets find homes and provided more than $167 million in grants and program funding to animal-welfare organizations. Adoption Partners We invite local animal-welfare organizations to become approved PetSmart Charities Adoption Partners so they can hold adoption events inside PetSmart® stores. By collaborating with 2,800 animal shelters and operating Adoption Centers inside more than 1,200 PetSmart® stores, we give local animal shelters and rescue groups more opportunities to showcase their adoptable dogs and cats and find loving homes for them. In 2011, PetSmart Charities kicked off its second year of Community Adoption Events with 65 across the nation. These Community Adoption Events are held on weekends and in collaboration with several animal shelters and rescue groups. Generating increased media and community awareness, these events often result in increased attendance and more adoptions over a short period of time. More than 8,000 pets found homes through Community Adoption Events in 2011. In 2011, YOU helped more than 386,000 dogs and cats find new families through in-store Adoption Programs. Sponsored by The Central Oklahoma Humane Society in Oklahoma City, Okla., set up balloons, bright lights and huge tents in a PetSmart® store parking lot to kick off their Midnight Woofness Mega Adoption Event. A dozen animalwelfare organizations participated in this 40-hour marathon adoption event. Publicized as the largest adoption event in Oklahoma history, a record-setting 586 dogs and cats found new homes that weekend. 7 Because of YOU, one lucky pet on average is adopted through PetSmart Charities® every minute a PetSmart® store is open. Everyday Adoption Centers In 2011, PetSmart Charities® opened nine Everyday Adoption Centers as part of its nationwide collaboration with animal-welfare organizations to save more homeless pets. These Everyday Adoption Centers, built inside PetSmart® stores, provide animal shelters and rescue organizations with expanded adoption facilities where dogs and cats stay until they are adopted into lifelong homes. Not only do the homeless pets live in a large, pet-friendly venue, but it eliminates the need for shelter staff to transport pets from their shelter to a PetSmart® store. The benefits are huge for the partnering animal-welfare agencies: • PetSmart Charities funds 100 percent of the build-out costs for each new Everyday Adoption Center. • PetSmart® does not charge the animal agency any rent for the adoption space. • Local animal-welfare partners can expand their pet adoption program and available adoption space to find homes for even more pets, every day. In 2011, 8,498 dogs and cats were adopted through PetSmart Charities’ Everyday Adoption Centers around the country. 8 ADOPTIONS Lexington Celebrates New Everyday Adoption Center Lexington Humane Society in Lexington, Kentucky, opened an Everyday Adoption Center in a local PetSmart® store in October 2011. Almost immediately, the Lexington Humane Society experienced a 13 percent increase in their in-store adoptions. “This increase is on top of an already very healthy PetSmart® in-store adoption program, which now constitutes 44 percent of our total adoptions,” says Susan Malcomb, president of the Lexington Humane Society. Everyday Adoption Centers Opened in 2011 February 12 Scottsdale, Arizona In collaboration with Maricopa County Animal Care & Control July 23 Westminster, Colorado In collaboration with Humane Society of Boulder Valley November 12 Midland, Texas In collaboration with Midland Humane Coalition April 30 Dover, Delaware In collaboration with Kent County SPCA October 1 Lexington, Kentucky In collaboration with Lexington Humane Society June 25 Green Bay, Wisconsin In collaboration with Bay Area Humane Society October 29 Boise, Idaho In collaboration with Idaho Humane Society December 3 Fort Worth, Texas In collaboration with City of Fort Worth Animal Care and Control November 19 Mt. Olive, New Jersey In collaboration with 11th Hour Rescue Fort Worth Finds Second Center Twice as Nice Fort Worth Animal Care and Control in Fort Worth, Texas, opened their second Everyday Adoption Center in a PetSmart ® store in December 2011. Before either Everyday Adoption Center opened, Fort Worth’s animal shelter adopted only 100 animals each month. Their first Everyday Adoption Center resulted in the annual adoption of an additional 2,600 dogs and cats. Their second Everyday Adoption Center is expected to double those numbers. “This collaboration has paid off on so many fronts,” says Scott Hanlan, assistant code compliance director for the City of Fort Worth. “Not only has it increased our adoption rates, but it has increased the notoriety of our program, our relationships with rescue partners, and good will in the community.” Adoption Rewards In addition to adoption fees, which our adoption partners keep, our Adoption Rewards program pays partner agencies for every pet adopted, whether through an in-store adoption program, Community Adoption Event, National Adoption Weekend, or Everyday Adoption Center. This helps our partners offset pet care costs and gives them resources to enhance their adoption programs. In 2011, our adoption partners received more than $6.5 million in funding through the Adoptions Reward Program. 9 When there is great need, send emergency relief. YOU 22,045: number of pets the PetSmart Charities Emergency Relief Waggin’ program helped rescue in 2011. 10 EMERGENCY RELIEF WAGGIN’® Pets are especially vulnerable to injury and abandonment when a natural or man-made disaster occurs. Like us, they need basic necessities to survive until they can be reunited with their families or find homes. PetSmart Charities®’ Emergency Relief Waggin®’ vehicles stand ready to deliver comfort and aid to affected animals, as well as supplies and equipment for their rescuers. We also dispatch teams of specially-trained volunteers to every disaster to unload supplies and set up temporary shelters, enabling rescuers to focus on affected animals and provide the care and comfort they need. In 2011, our Emergency Relief Waggin’ vehicles completed 16 deployments, including the largest disaster deployment in the program’s 7-year history. Each vehicle contained $80,000 worth of supplies and equipment to help pets and their rescuers cope with record flooding and deadly tornadoes, as well as large-scale puppy mill, hoarding and animal abuse cases. When disaster strikes, YOU send Emergency Relief Waggin’ vehicles to help pets in need. When the spring of 2011 brought record flooding and deadly tornados to the Midwest and southern United States, PetSmart Charities dispatched 23 Emergency Relief Waggin’ vehicles to Memphis, Tennessee and Joplin, Missouri. Teaming up with the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®, volunteers set up distribution centers in both Joplin and Memphis to assist the thousands of pets displaced by these disasters. The Emergency Relief Waggin’ program has helped nearly 36,000 pets left displaced or suffering because of natural or man-made disasters since 2007. 11 Cruelty Situation in Arizona In March, PetSmart Charities® responded to an animal cruelty situation in Witch Wells, a town in northeastern Arizona. Responders found dog feces piled high in corners of the pens and several dogs were near death. Other dogs had mange and bite marks on their necks and faces. PetSmart Charities dispatched an Emergency Relief Waggin’ vehicle and worked with the Humane Society of the United States to help more than 150 large-breed dogs and 40 cats receive emergency assistance and medical care. 12 EMERGENCY RELIEF WAGGIN’® North Carolina Puppy Mill Case Cat Rescue in Florida In June, PetSmart Charities dispatched an Emergency Relief Waggin’ vehicle to a puppy mill in Hudson, North Carolina. First responders reported that approximately 300 dogs were housed in unsanitary conditions and lacked proper socialization and medical care. Caldwell County Animal Control seized all the animals. PetSmart Charities teamed up with the Humane Society of the United States in this rescue effort. In June, PetSmart Charities® dispatched an Emergency Relief Waggin’® vehicle to the largest all-cat rescue in our organization’s history—more than 650 cats at a facility near Gainesville, Florida. Together with the ASPCA®, we helped care for these sick cats and placed them into local animal shelters where they eventually found their lifelong, loving homes. 13 When it is the end of the road, send Rescue Waggin’® vehicles to help. YOU 50,000+: dogs and puppies saved by the Rescue Waggin’ program since 2004 60+: animal shelters that participated in the Rescue Waggin’ program in 2011 790,000+: dollars PetSmart Charities granted in 2011 to Rescue Waggin’ partners to expand spay/ neuter programs and improve shelters Dawn, a 7-year-old Golden Retriever, was among the thousands of dogs and puppies transported on Rescue Waggin’ vehicles each year in search of a new home. 14 RESCUE WAGGIN’® Dawn, a 7-year-old Golden Retriever, became the 50,000th dog to be transported on a PetSmart Charities® Rescue Waggin’® vehicle. Given as a gift, Dawn was relinquished to the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society in New Mexico just six months later. Her family said Dawn was a faithful friend who loved playing with children and going on walks, but they could no longer care for her. A week later, Dawn boarded a Rescue Waggin’ vehicle for her life-saving journey to the Humane Society of Boulder Valley in Boulder, Colorado. Just two days after her arrival in Boulder, a new family adopted Dawn, giving her the forever home she deserved. Every year, more and more pets board a Rescue Waggin’ vehicle for a life-saving ride to new shelters and homes. Crisscrossing the nation, Rescue Waggin’ vehicles are on the road all year long, transporting dogs and puppies from overcrowded animal shelters where space and resources are limited to new communities where adoptable dogs are more in demand. 8,507 6,270 Thanks to YOU, local shelters could provide happy endings for dogs in need of a second chance. 9,216 9,541 6,726 5,312 3,630 1,665 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 Launched in 2004, PetSmart Charities’ Rescue Waggin’ program networks animal shelters across the country, giving life-saving rides for adoptable dogs and puppies and providing partners with professional consultations and capacity-building grants for shelter improvements. 15 Reunited for Play Days Trooper and Ike are brothers that spent the first 18 months of their life together with a family that loved them. But when their owner deployed to Afghanistan, they were relinquished to Orange County Animal Shelter in Orange, Virginia. With little chance of adoption for these older dogs in Virginia, Trooper and Ike boarded a Rescue Waggin’ vehicle to St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center in Madison, New Jersey. Two weeks later, both dogs were adopted, but into different homes. Fate intervened when the new owners met at St. Hubert’s and became friends. Now the two dogs meet regularly for play dates. 16 RESCUE WAGGIN’® Thanks to the many destination shelters in the Rescue Waggin’® program that open their doors to pets from across the nation.

Her puppy was adopted quickly, but Summer languished for several months. Menifee County Animal Shelter finally sent her to the Wisconsin Humane Society in Milwaukee aboard a PetSmart Charities® Rescue Waggin’® vehicle. Just a few days later, Summer found her lifelong, loving home.

YOU 18 GRANTS When communities need to address their pet overpopulation problem, they turn to PetSmart Charities® for help. In 2011, PetSmart Charities provided more grants than ever before to animal shelters and spay/ neuter clinics. Working with local groups, we mentor agencies and provide high-impact grants that target specific geographical areas where there is critical need. The goal is to prevent unplanned pet births over the long term by providing targeted spay/neuter surgeries. Targeted spay/neuter grants focus on altering cats and dogs in specific areas of the community. Free-roaming cat spay/neuter grants support trap-neuter-return projects for community cats. PetSmart Charities provides funding for surgical equipment and spay/neuter surgeries, as well as reasonable expenses for items needed to get the surgeries done, like marketing materials and humane traps. Thanks to YOU, PetSmart Charities provided more than $13 million in grants to support low-cost, high-quality spay/neuter programs in communities nationwide. Celebrating 100 Clinics Trained, Millions of Pets Sterilized PetSmart Charities and the ASPCA® continued their on-going support of the Humane Alliance and celebrated the training of its 100th spay/neuter clinic in 2011. The Humane Alliance operates the National Spay/Neuter Response Team—the nation’s only training center for spay/neuter clinics to learn how to open and operate lowcost, high-quality, high-volume facilities. Collectively, the 100 clinics have sterilized nearly 2 million cats and dogs. “Our long-standing collaboration with PetSmart Charities and the ASPCA allows us to continue to provide the spay/neuter services pets desperately need, as well as the opportunity to train veterinarians from all over the country in the high-quality, high-volume spay/neuter techniques that can get more pets sterilized,” says Quita Mazzina, executive director of the Humane Alliance. 19 “There were so many unseen feral cats in the farms and woods, and I couldn’t get anyone to care. That’s when I went to PetSmart Charities for help.” Laura Jordan Feral Cat Program Manager Our Companions Turning a Cat Problem into Managed Care Our Companions of Ashford, Connecticut received a $22,900 targeted grant from the PetSmart Charities ® High-Impact Grant Program to conduct a two-year, trap-neuterreturn program. The goal of the Sterile Feral program: sterilize every cat in Ashford. Laura Jordan, who leads the program, says the rural community had numerous sick and dying feral cats that needed care. With advice from her PetSmart Charities grants mentor, she teamed up with Ashford Animal Control and convinced local residents to let her onto their properties to trap and sterilize the cats. A local veterinarian donated time and clinic space to perform up to 10 spay/neuter surgeries per week. 20 The program exceeded its goal of sterilizing more than 500 cats. In addition, Jordan said the program helped Our Companions build closer ties with the community, paving the way for the organization to open a new domestic animal sanctuary in 2012. There also has been an important attitude shift, with Ashford residents now seeing feral cats as living creatures in need of care, as opposed to a nuisance. “This grant was the best thing ever,” says Jordan. GRANTS Saving Cats in Florida The Humane Society of Tampa Bay is in the middle of a two-year spay/ neuter project funded by a grant from PetSmart Charities. The project has performed nearly 4,000 surgeries on free-roaming cats in two high intake ZIP codes. Free “Spay Day” Draws Huge Crowds in Arizona Hundreds of people waited patiently in a line a quarter-mile long to receive free spay/neuter surgeries for their pets from Maricopa County Animal Care and Control and Arizona Humane Society, thanks to a grant from PetSmart Charities®. Six mobile units and three fixed site clinics participated in the event. The goal was to perform 310 surgeries and provide 315 vouchers to the crowd. By the end of the day, 625 surgeries were completed and 1,200 vouchers were distributed. “This grant has allowed us to help several thousand cats that would not otherwise be sterilized and that translates into lives saved,” says Sherry Silk, executive director of the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. “There is just no way to save lives without this kind of grant support.” Surrounding Hillsborough County has developed a model trap-neuter-return program. They reportedly have 2,840 free-roaming cat colonies with 14,780 felines registered through the program. Thanks to their hard work, feline euthanasia in Hillsborough County has been reduced almost 50 percent in the last six years. “There is just no way to save lives without this kind of grant support.” Sherry Silk Executive Director Humane Society of Tampa Bay 21 When education is needed, deliver new skills and knowledge to help people assist animals in their communities. YOU 22 EDUCATION AND TRAINING In 2011, we sponsored 40 state, regional and national conferences in the U.S. to advance animal-welfare education. The SNIP! Summit Provides Spay/Neuter Education PetSmart Charities® teamed up with the ASPCA® to sponsor The SNIP! Summit, a spay/neuter best practices conference hosted by the Humane Alliance in Asheville, North Carolina. The SNIP! Summit offered more than 36 workshops, special sessions, forums, and wet labs to share proven strategies and techniques of high-quality, high-volume spay/neuter programs. The conference was a huge success with over 850 people in attendance from the United States and Canada. DVD Promotes Early Spay/Neuter E-learning Offers Animal-Welfare Professionals New Skills One of the biggest barriers for early spay/neuter is the resistance of some veterinarians to perform these surgeries on dogs and cats under six months old. Because pets are adopted as young as eight weeks and because pets can go into heat as early as four months, PetSmart Charities is a strong proponent of early spay/neuter. With local animal-welfare agencies on tight budgets, webinars are a cost-effective method of learning for animal-welfare staff and volunteers. Taught by experts in their respective fields, these online sessions provide animal-welfare professionals with the skills they need to run animal shelters and spay/neuter clinics and look after the animals in their care. To demonstrate the efficacy of this practice, PetSmart Charities funded the Humane Alliance to produce a video on early spay/neuter techniques and tips for veterinarians. The video was distributed at three major veterinary conferences—the North American Veterinary Conference, the Western Veterinary Conference and the American Veterinary Medical Association Conference— reaching more than 23,000 veterinarians and students. In 2011, PetSmart Charities offered 33 free live webinars on topics such as adoptions, agency administration, animal care, animal behavior, fundraising, humane education, shelter medicine and spay/neuter. More than 9,500 animal-welfare professionals participated in these live webinars or reviewed the more than 200 archived sessions available on our website. Thanks to YOU, animal-welfare professionals and the veterinary community have increased access to e-learning opportunities, conferences and other resources to improve the lives of companion animals. 23 PetSmart Charities, Inc.
