04 October: It's World Animal Day today. Spare a thought for all the beautiful animals that live in less than ideal circumstances.

This may be contentious, but I would include all of the animals farmed for meat.

I agree that big business can not be trusted. It was quite different when there was a relationship between family and their food.

here here!! I am with an organization that helps feral cats get all their shots and neutered or spay. Then if they can be reabilitated they are adopted . The kitten are socialized and go to good homes too. Lots of work but making their lives a lot better one at a time.. Suzanne

I think often of the ocean and how important it is and the horrible things that have been done. It is already a vicious place and now is in even more danger. Small disruptions can cause complete destruction of their habitat. The Gulf of Mexico is the best example I can give of the callous actions of greedy humans. The good news is - the Earth will take care of herself!

And there are far too many animals in bad conditions. Thanks for the reminder.
