For the past two years, Three Chatty Cats has been honored to participate in Remember Me Thursday, which is a global movement to help shine a light on orphan pets waiting for their forever homes in shelters and rescues.
This year, Remember Me Thursday, which was created by Mike Arms, President and CEO of Helen Woodward Animal Center, will take place on September 27, 2018.
We have an exciting announcement today about our participation in Remember Me Thursday. But for those not familiar with the event, let’s first find out what it’s all about.
Remember Me Thursday
According to the official event website (remembermethursday.org), “Remember Me Thursday® is a global awareness campaign uniting individuals and pet adoption organizations around the world as an unstoppable, integrated voice for orphan pets to live in forever homes, not die waiting for them.”
The goal of Remember Me Thursday is to get as many people as possible talking about pet adoption on social media on September 27, 2018.
Last year, nearly 330 million people used the #RememberMeThursday hashtag on social media! Can we reach that number again this year? Can we exceed it? We’re going to do our part to help!
#RememberMeThursday Contest
Besides talking about pet adoption on social media, you also have the chance to win a prize for your favorite rescue or shelter! There are three ways to enter the Remember Me Thursday Contest. First, take a photo of your rescue pet and then do one of the following:
- Post the photo on Instagram with #RememberMeThursday and @hwac.
- Post the photo on Twitter with #RememberMeThursday and @hwac.
- Upload the photo on the website at remembermethursday.org/contest.
It’s that simple! The contest is already open and runs from August 30 through September 28, 2018.

VERY VERY VERY COOL!!!! We’ll be there………..I’m a rescue guy from a shelter so I definitely qualify!
Hugs, Teddy
We’re so excited to co-host the blog hop with you! We hope LOTS of people participate this year!
Yes! We’re in!
we love this event and the idea of a blog hop – the more people involved, the more people see it. we are there!!
Oh heck yeah, count me IN! Thanks for doing this!
That really is such an important day, we know first paw that we were the lucky ones and we hope every kitty and doggy finds their happy.
i guess i’m naive. how does a blog hop work?
After you write your Remember Me Thursday post, you would come back to my blog and “link up” — meaning you would add your specific blog post url to the hop. It will be much clearer once I have that actual post up (on 9/20) so you could see how you enter your post. Then your blog post would be visible on my blog and on the others that link up as well. The idea is that readers hop from blog to blog to read all about RMT! You can always check it out on the 20th after my RMT post goes live. :-)
coolio. my cats are (and previous were) all rescues so I’ll be happy to participate!
We participated in Remember Me Thursday for many years, probably since it started in the blogging world, we received our “official partner” info last year and this year as well………not sure if we will be participating this year or not (due to time constraints)……..if I do, I might just repeat last years post.
guyz…thiz iz total lee awesum !!!!!!!! :) ♥♥
Thanks for the wonderful share. We will be happy to spread the word out for September 27th. Pet adoption is so important for everyone. We hope plenty of furbabies find their furever homes with wonderful families. Have a great day.
We’ll be pawticipating for sure!
Thumbs up!!
I’m so excited that you guys are doing this! We will be there for sure!
Our cats are rescue cats, as well as the 70+ felines that we spend time with at PAWS.
Remember Me Thursday is near and dear to our hearts.

I had never heard of the Remember Me movement! lovely
I will definitely participate. I have 3 from shelters and my Angel Snowball was in a shelter for 2 years before I adopted her.
This is great. We are looking forward to participating!
We met the team from Remember Me Thursday at the 2017 BlogPaws conference in Myrtle Beach. I still remember how kind and friendly they were.Thanks so much for leading the blog hop and helping to shine a light on Remember Me Thursday.
Congratulations on the blog hop, Remember Me Thursday is something I discuss every year and this year my birthday falls on that day. We look forward to participating
We’ll definitely participate this year too!
And perhaps you’ll win a prize again! :-)
What a wonderful movement, and thanks for sharing I wasn’t aware of it. Congratulations on your new partnership, very exciting. I only rescue and of course advocate for adoption, so this year I will be writing a post in order to do my part to help homeless animals find forever families.
We are hoping to participate again this year! I love that there will be a blog hop AND that it will up for two weeks. You and Dawn will make wonderful hosts, congrats!
Oh yeah, we’re in, for sure! Thank you so much for hosting … we are so excited!
Thanks for co-hosting the blog hop! The more eyes we have on the amazing pets up for adoption, the greater chance they have to be adopted.
So many great efforts. Everybody can find a cause and the way to support it that best suits their means, personality, and preference.
This is exciting news! And, a great way to get people talking. We have Remember Me Thursday marked on our calendar and will definitely link up. Thank you.
How wonderful! I had an article on Remember Me Thursday published in 4Knines, so I will be sure to link up! Thanks for hosting the hop!
I would love to join you guys on the Remember Thursday blog hop! So many pets get left behind and are at risk. It breaks my heart when I see very long term shelter pets who have been waiting for years to find a loving home.
