Selena Gomez helps homeless animals

Posted by Gomez and Co. |


Wizards of Waverly Place star Selena Gomez is doing nothing to disprove the latest findings by MTV/Nickelodeon in their research on the Millennial Generation. The study finds that today's youth are more likely to care, and to do something about the things they care about, than their parents were.

Last week, Selena used her celebrity status to bring attention to the plight of neglected and homeless animals in Puerto Rico. She wrote about it on her blog, and asked fans to help raise money to help the animals. We all have until March 31 to donate as part of Selena's fundraiser.

Gomez has been to the Caribbean. Gomez loves animals. And so Gomez naturally feels Selena on this one. In the mainland US, we are for the most part blissfully unaware of the homeless animals in our midst, because they are rounded up and imprisoned until adoption or euthanasia. In the Caribbean, the poor creatures are everywhere, mangy, starving, diseased and tremendously sad.

Selena joined forces with the Island Dog organization to help raise awareness of the suffering. Gomez is impressed, and wishes the young star, and the animals of Puerto Rico, success in their endeavor.
