Scritch Celebrates Bond Between Pet Parents, Furry Family Members

SEATTLE, June 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- To help pet parents realize the full richness of the pets in their lives, Aon Affinity has created Scritch - a free app designed to help pet parents manage the many facets of their pets' lives and connect them with a community of passionate pet parents across the country. Named after a pet's "scritch" spot (the area where pets love to be scratched that gets a lean in or a foot thumping), Scritch offers everything from tools like maps of nearby pet-friendly places to an interactive community where members can share the joys of pet parenting.

"Our pets add so much to our lives - from simple companionship to boosting our mental and physical wellbeing," said Christina Hopper, President of Aon Affinity's Consumer Solutions Group. "In return for all the goodness that pets bring, pet parents are as devoted to their four-legged family members as their pets are to them. Scritch offers resources that celebrate and strengthen this bond."
