“Adopt, don’t shop” is a motto that more and more celebrities are embracing when selecting their pets. They are consciously opting for an animal from an animal welfare organization instead of buying a dog or cat from a breeder. This is because millions of animals around the world are desperately waiting for a new home in overcrowded shelters and euthanasia facilities. Sex and the City star Kristin Davis is also using her reach to draw attention to the issue.

With Kristin Davis, it’s love at first sight

The 59-year-old has now shared snippets of her very first meeting with her adopted dog, Chewy, on Instagram. The meeting took place on the premises of an animal welfare organization. It is impressive to see how the actress, who plays the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City and its spin-off And Just Like That..., falls head over heels in love with the young four-legged friend.

It, therefore, comes as no surprise that Kristin Davis decided to adopt him right after their first meeting. However, Chewy was not able to move into his new home straight away, his foster home reveals. The young dog first had to recover from his kennel cough. But that did not dampen the joy on either side.

The newly minted dog mom posted an emotional message of gratitude to the foster home and the associated animal welfare organization on Instagram. “Thank you for everything you do for so many amazing dogs – my children and I are lucky to have Chewy in our lives.” But Kristin Davis also thanked her fans in an even more emotional comment.

“I just want to say that I love all of you who have commented with such love and good vibes! The rescue community really inspires me and I will keep reading these comments when I’m having a bad day in the future!
Thank you. ♥️😭♥️😭” This was preceded by many comments from followers who had rejoiced with the mother-of-two about her new pet. One fan, for example, wrote quite emotionally: “I’m crying. I love everything about it!” Another wrote: “From the shelter to Hollywood 🤩 go, Chewy!!!”
