Petango.com is asking pet lovers to “Find a Pet, Feed a Pet” for the opportunity to win FREE pet food for their pets AND adoptable pets in animal shelters. Find the “Mystery” Pet from a set of clues, be the first to post it on the Petango.com fan page on Facebook, and win FREE pet food of your choice from ThePetangoStore.com for your pets and the animal shelter where our Mystery Pet resides!
Here's how it works:
1) Once or twice a week on a random day of our choosing we will select one pet currently available for adoption on Petango.com to be our Mystery Pet.
2) We will deliver three clues about our Mystery Pet on our Blog, Facebook, and Twitter.
3) The first person to discover our Mystery Pet will win any pet food item from the Pet Food Shop at ThePetangoStore.com AND a free bag of pet food for the animal shelter where our chosen pet is housed.
4) No winner? Every hour after the first hour we will provide an additional clue until someone figures it out!
Sound like a plan? This is how you play:
1) Become a fan of Petango.com on Facebook.
2) Watch for our THREE clues posted on our Blog, Facebook, and Twitter (@petangopets).
3) Using your best detective skills, search adoptable pets on Petango.com for our Mystery Pet.
4) Think you got it? Post the link to the profile of your guess on our Facebook wall OR as a comment in the Find a Pet post… but choose carefully! You only get three guesses.
5) First person to correctly guess the Mystery Pet AND post his or her profile on the Petango.com Facebook fan page WINS!
Here are the answers to our example at the top:
1) The Native name given to my home actually means "Children of the Sun." "Spokane" is named after a Native American tribe bearing the same name. It is Salish for "Children of the Sun."
2) We may not be the most popular pets right now, but I for one, am fabulous! Pit Bulls may not be the most popular pets right now, but Bully-breed lovers around the world know these dogs are intelligent, loyal, and affectionate!
3) I share my name with a famous TV actress currently caught between two vampy guys. Our Mystery Pet, Nina, shares her name with Nina Dobrev, the famous TV actress in The Vampire Diaries.
Last week's Mystery Pet was Nina, a sweet American Pit Bull Terrier at the Spokane Humane Society. Nina has since been adopted!
Our past two Mystery Pets, Dixie, a Beagle mix at the Humane Society of Catawba County and Elle Driver, a black Domestic Short Hair cat at Prairie's Edge Humane Society, are both still waiting for loving homes.
Ready for the REAL THING?
Here are your first three clues to this week's Mystery Pet!
1) The place where I live was founded on gold and originally named after a Frenchman. Weld County was originally named St. Vrain County after a French trader--even before Colorado was officially recognized as a state! The discovery of GOLD in the Platte River is what drove this recognition.
2) Curiosity hasn’t got the better of me yet! Our Mystery Pet is a particularly curious feline!
3) I come in many shades and often when you least expect it…at least that's what my name suggests! "Blush" comes in many shades...and I for one am always blushing when least expected!
Who am I? Find me and you can help feed me! Congratulations to Alexandra Wright for finding out Mystery Pet! You can visit Blush at the Weld County Humane Society where she is anxiously awaiting a forever home...
Miss out this week? Not to worry! We'll be back next week with MORE Mystery Pets and another chance to win!
