Exciting news!! The Animal Miracle Foundation has established May 3 as National Disabled Pets Day! I discovered this fantastic information from Almost Perfect Pets blog, who by the way, has a book with the same name, and it is a wonderful, must read book.
A lump formed in my throat when I heard this news. What a positive effect this will have not only on animals with disabilities, but in turn, on others with disabilities. Teaching our children compassion and tolerance through these animals is so beneficial.
It will bring immense awareness to these animals who are often overlooked and forgotten in shelters. I can assure you a disabled animal will bring you rewards beyond anything you ever imagined. Giving your heart to one of these animals will be a blessing unlike anything you have ever known.
