‘World Animal Day is a wonderful chance for animal lovers all over the world to come together in solidarity over one extremely important cause. To save and protect the animals on our planet and the delicate environment they live in. Without animals in the world, the world would be a very sad place. We must learn to protect and nurture them and make sure that the world will always stay a place where they can roam free and never become extinct.’

'I believe that without animals in our lives we would be a very sad bunch of people. The joy that they bring and the unconditional love is amazing - when we walk through our doors after a bad day at work, they are there with a waggy tail and bark, a meow and a cuddle. Humans don't even do that for us a lot of the time.
Please support this amazing cause and let’s make more people become animal lovers, because without them, we would be lost.'

'How wonderful to have a day to celebrate all the animals in the world. What a lonely, awful place it would be without them. They enrich every aspect of
life - let's celebrate them and work together to bring an end to all animal suffering.'

'Nothing gives me more pleasure than my
dogs, cats, the Highland pony herd in the
surrounding fields, the dogs I meet on walks every
day, the deer wandering through the field, the fox,
rabbits and badgers. Every day I feed the birds and
rejoice in the different species that come flying
in. The animal kingdom brings us such joy and it is
our duty and privilege to repay them with kindness,
understanding and constant vigilance.'
Jilly Cooper, author |

'I have been incredibly fortunate that my work has brought me into such close contact with the natural world - and I never cease to be amazed by the variety, beauty and intelligence of the animals I paint. World Animal Day provides a wonderful opportunity for us all to celebrate the ways in which our lives are enriched by animals - and to support all the hardworking organisations which are striving to end animal suffering worldwide.'
Pollyanna Pickering, wildlife artist |

'I'm so glad to hear that you are trying to
raise awareness in other parts of the world where
animals are often at the bottom of the list. Having
compassion for other species is so important -
particularly in regard to our own development as
human beings. Good luck with your work.'
