Show the pet a Christmas tree

“Show the pet a Christmas tree” is an event-campaign of two parts, which has already become a tradition, which has been held for five years, has attracted a lot of public interest and donated a total of over 68000 portions of food to stray animals!

The first part is an event in Vilnius Cathedral Square, during which the tent town of animal shelters and a warm and cozy area with delicious treats for the guests of the event settles down.

During the event, pet owners are invited to take a photo at a special frame and a Christmas tree together with their pets, have a great opportunity to get acquainted with the activities and representatives of different shelters, guests are treated to hot tea and tangerines, and their four-legged friends are treated. The event promotes people’s awareness about attention to their animals, the situation of stray four-legged pets in Lithuania and a responsible attitude to the acquisition of animals. Moreover, most importantly, it is an opportunity to show your four-legged friend how important and full-fledged member of the family it is.

The second part is a campaign taking place on the Internet. After the event, a video is created, which is publicized on the social network Facebook, and it collects “likes” for a week, which turn into portions of food for stray animals (1 like = 1 serving). Delicious food is donated to the residents of the shelters that participated in the event by the main sponsor of the event, Mars Lietuva, UAB.
