🐱Happy Animal Day 🇦🇷! 🐶 We know that the commemorative day is every 4th October. However, in Argentina it is celebrated every 29th April and as animal lovers, we could not let this day pass without paying tribute to them. 💖 So, on this special day, we want to celebrate all the animals that surround us, from our furry pets to the most exotic creatures on the planet. 🐯🦊 Animals are incredible beings that enrich our lives in so many ways. They provide us with love, companionship, emotional support, and even teach us valuable life lessons. 🐾 It is our duty to protect them and ensure their well-being. 💕 What can we do to help animals? 🐾 Adopt a pet from a shelter. 🐾 Donate to organizations that work for animal welfare. 🐾 Volunteer our time at a shelter or rescue center. 🐾 Report animal abuse. 🐾 Choose products that are not tested on animals. 🐾 Educate others about the importance of animal protection. Together we can make the world a better place for all animals. By the way, we would like to introduce you to the four-legged Soul Ocean family 😻💕 . #NationalPetDay #AnimalProtection #AnimalLove #Pets #Biodiversity #Planet

Today, we are launching a nationwide campaign to #ProtectTheBan on live animal export in Aotearoa. Aotearoa's ban on live animal export, implemented last year, was a powerful step forward for both animal welfare and our nation's global reputation. Yet, this progress is under threat, as the current Government seeks to overturn the ban. We strongly believe this would be a devastating decision for both the animals and New Zealand's values. Join us in urging everyone who shares our commitment to animal welfare to get behind this movement. Together, we can make a difference and protect the ban for good. Take action: Sign and share our petition: https://lnkd.in/gDr4U-dQ #liveexport #banliveexport #endliveexport #endliveexports #animalwelfare #animalrights

Data highlights of this week in animal sheltering. First, Best Friends Animal Society released their 2023 annual report, which contains some really interesting insights. It's a rich report and well-worth reading: https://lnkd.in/gptWs7aZ Second, Shelter Animals Count showed despite popular beliefs, July 5 is NOT the highest intake day of the year, it's the third. Any guesses as to the busiest intake day for US shelters?
