Foster love to animals and respect for their rights in young children

The way we talk about stray cats or dogs, wild animals or pets in front of a child tells on the child's attitude to them. Be the change and teach a child to treat animals with love and care. Help them to realize that animals can feel pain, that they can suffer from cruelty. Make up or read stories where animals act as people's devoted friends.
I write poems for my granddaughter about her friendhip with animals, birds and other creatures. She adores them and she loves our pets.

  1. This is an ongoing pledge that should be fulfilled as often as possible.

    This is about more than how we treat our pets, it's about thought before action, in everything we do. Can we set the spider outside instead of squashing it? Can we purchase free range eggs instead of those that come from cruel factory farms?  We need to foster empathy by teaching, and by example, in everything we do.

    Whenever my parents or I come across an animal in need, we take it home. It's almost a weakness of ours, we can't stand dieing/mistreated animals in need. They always end up at our house.
