Taylor Morrison teases us with custom built pet homes for April Fools' Day
Sadly, these luxury accommodations for our pets are still just a dream and a wish. However, now that the idea is out there, we wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing custom pet homes being built in the future. After all, even the dog house needs an update sometimes.
But the real purpose of this particular April Fools' Day joke from Taylor Morrison was to raise awareness for the needs of displaced animals and shelter animals in need. As part of their ReTreats creation (even if it is a joke), they are donating to the West LA Animal Shelter in order to help them get the 100 beds that they are in need of. And on their ReTreats by Taylor Morrison page, you can also help by contributing at the link at the end of the page.
While we are sad not to be getting futuristic homes for our pets, we do love that Taylor Morrison decided to have some fun with April Fools' Day in order to help shelter animals in need.
