Shailene Woodley Joins Mars and Calm to Highlight Pet Adoption Benefits

Mars, Incorporated partners with actor Shailene Woodley and mental health company Calm to emphasize the positive effects of pet adoption. A joint survey reveals that 83% of pet owners report improved mental well-being thanks to their pets. With millions of animals in shelters, Mars organizes a Global Adoption Weekend from October 3-5, 2025, to encourage pet adoption.

Woodley, a rescue cat owner, reflects how her pets have enhanced her life balance. Scientifically, spending time with pets boosts 'happy hormones,' enhancing mental health for both owners and pets. Initiatives during the event include financial support for adoption fees and pet food supplies, impacting over 20 countries.

Through financial help and awareness campaigns, Mars aims to build strong bonds between people and their pets globally during the Global Adoption Weekend.
