World Animal Day, October 4th, 2008

What would our world be without animals?  I shudder to think.  I just learned of World Animal Day today and wanted to share it with you.  This is their mission statement:

MISSION STATEMENT – WORLD ANIMAL DAY

  • To celebrate animal life in all its forms
  • To celebrate humankind’s relationship with the animal kingdom
  • To acknowledge the diverse roles that animals play in our lives – from being our companions, supporting and helping us, to bringing a sense of wonder into our lives
  • To acknowledge and be thankful for the way in which animals enrich our lives

I couldn’t have said it better myself. Check out their website and be sure to celebrate the animals in your life this Saturday!  I know I will be!  World Animal Day
