World Animal Day and our responsibility to them
The way we treat animals as a society, as citizens and as human beings reflects our character.
With 4 to October having established itself as the World Animal Day reminds us of our obligations towards them and our responsibility to organize the necessary protection and respect for life net each animal.
Recently, with the decision of the Deputy Minister of Interior, Mr. Stelios Petsas, 416,829 euros from the PHILODIMOS II program are directed towards the establishment and operation of a Stray Animal Shelter by the Municipality of Argostoli.
These shelters provide shelter and care to stray pets in modern facilities until citizens show interest in their adoption.
No stray animals – no abused.
World Animal Day exists to remind us of our responsibility to animals; not just today but every day.
