World Animal Day comes every year on the 4th October.
It is a Special Day, in which we as humans should show appreciation to all living animals and be grateful for what we have learnt from spending time with animals and appreciate the special bonds that we have shared with living animals. It is a Animal Welfare Day and International Animal Rights is a very important subject.
October the 4th World Animal Welfare Day, came to be on this day as it is the Feast Day of St Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals.
World Animal Day is celebrated all around the world. If you would like to know what is going on in you part of the world you can look on this website:

If you live in an area with stray dogs and stray cats you can put out banners for all to see, about protecting the dogs and cats as they are living creatures that deserve respect or that neuter and spay operations are the way forward.
Even spending time with stray dogs and cats or animals in need, giving them some much needed love, care and food it can make a difference, even to just 1 dog or 1 cats life.
Care for living animals always, but on the 4th October Animals Day, especially take the time out to do something special.
