October 4th is World Animals Day
October 4th is celebrated as World Animals Day. It started in Florence, Italy in 1931 at a convention of ecologists. The day was chosen to coincide with the feast day of Saint Francis of Assisi, a nature lover and patron saint of animals and the environment. Lets all try to avoid buying pets and try adopting them today and every day!
