OAKVILLE, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - April 15, 2011) - Pethealth Inc. (TSX:PTZ) — Save a Life with a "Like"! It's a simple message with a powerful impact. To raise awareness about homeless pets in shelters, adoptable search site Petango.com has pledged to "Save a Life with a Like" by donating $1 to animal shelters for every "Like" its Facebook fan page receives, up to $100,000. Since launching the campaign over 30,000 animal lovers have joined the cause, raising over $30,000 that will go to various Petango-partner animal shelters across North America in the effort to help homeless pets find homes, like Winnie, a Pit Bull Terrier mix.

Described as a "people pleaser," Winnie is a calm, sweet-tempered girl looking for an equally companionable adopter to take her home. Since arriving at Austin Pets Alive! Winnie has participated in onsite training, demonstrating excellent manners and an eagerness to learn. Despite the rough road behind her, she has always greeted every visitor with a wagging tail.

"When it comes to rescuing homeless pets every dollar counts," says Dr. Ellen Jefferson, Executive Director of Austin Pets Alive! "Petango's Facebook campaign offers a wonderful opportunity for pet lovers everywhere to make a real difference in the lives of animals in need with a simple click of a mouse. So if you're on Facebook and love pets, why not take a moment and 'Save a Life with a Like'?"

Pet lovers and first-time visitors to the Petango.com fan page can learn more about the campaign by watching the Save a Life with a Like video and join the cause with a click of the mouse. Fans of the page can interact with daily posts of adoptable pets, share their own pets, and participate in weekly contests for pet prizes.

"With over 300 average daily Likes the response to our campaign has been incredible," says Susan Arts, Vice President of Marketing at Pethealth Inc. "People are passionate about the welfare of homeless animals, and I'm confident that pet lovers will help us reach our $100,000 goal before the end of this year."

Beginning in June, Petango will update their fans on how donations from the Save a Life with a Like campaign are helping homeless pets. To Like Petango's Facebook fan page, pet lovers can visit www.facebook.com/petango.
