Celebrating Patriot Day — #NeverForget

This weekend will mark the 21st anniversary of the largest act of terrorism on U.S. soil. On Sept. 11, 2001, nearly 3,000 people died as a direct result of the attacks when hijackers flew planes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in Virginia (near Washington, D.C.) and a field in Pennsylvania.

The Sept. 11 day of remembrance is known as Patriot Day.

While those lost lives are mourned, the nation also celebrates the bravery of the service members and first responders who remain on the front lines. Thank you to all of the courageous men and women who risk their life daily for our safety.

PET OF THE WEEK

What’s Brinley doing? Oh… just waiting for a new owner to scoop him away. He’s a 3-month-old Domestic Shorthair mix that’s ready to make your home his. Although he’s not declawed (minor detail), he’s neutered. Brinley is a pretty chill yet curious kitty. He mostly likes to be petted and adored (because, you know, he’s a cat.) Learn how you can adopt Brinley here.
