Every day, animals are abandoned, dependent on charities and goodwill. These organizations are strained beyond coping, and are desperate to raise awareness of the plight of homeless and abandoned animals. The International Society for Animal Rights (ISAR) began International Homeless Animals’ Day in 1992. Since that time, ISAR’s Observances have consistently grown in number. They bring people all over the world together to shed light on pet overpopulation and the spay/neuter solution. The special day is celebrated in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, in over 50 countries and on 6 continents. Best Friends Society, Canadian Federation of Humane Societies, RESCUE Animals IRELAND, PetRescue New Zealand or thousands of other homeless animal charities rescue and care for homeless animals. They have millions of volunteers to do so many tasks to help them do what they do best Worldwide.

I literally made myself sick reading stories and looking at images of homeless pets. I chose to emphasize the positive of this so very important topic. Let’s all do what we can-no matter how small it is appreciated. I apologize if I offended anyone.
My gang is sleeping the peace of having a furever home. Let’s strive for all cats to sleep like these two buddies!
Good night and have a happy~
