Everything created by nature drinks water. And only the man needed alcohol.

The results of this comparison, in my opinion, are extremely humiliating for me.

Thoughts about stray dogs, kind and not so good people

Much has been written about stray dogs.
Some people believe that they can and even need to be killed stupidly, others believe that they also have the right to life. Every living creature has this right, but in living, wild nature, the mechanisms that have been established over many centuries work clearly and smoothly, unless, again, an unreasonable person gets into these mechanisms. And again a heated debate with the justification of our human superiority over the animal and plant world.

Is this so? We are all equal before God. Except, perhaps, for the wrong life. After all, one animal does not kill another for the sake of entertainment, does not abandon its child, but fights for it not for life, but to death. There are exceptions to the rules, you say? Yes, there are, but there are exceptions.

With stray dogs and cats the situation is completely different. Discarded, domesticated, rarely surviving on the street, thoroughbreds at the genetic level have weaned themselves from looking for food on their own. They die from disease, from hunger, being torn apart by wandering flocks. This is about dogs, I won’t lie about cats, I don’t know.

5 years ago, in the Pushkino area, a white and chocolate dog was walking along the road and was knocked down by a young guy. I don’t know your name, but I will remember you all my life, because you didn’t leave (just think, some dog), you stopped, picked him up, found shelter. But under the months-long tangles it was difficult to spot the cocker spaniel. Thank you, wonderful woman, who called and told about this, for the fact that a guy only 8 years old stayed to live in your house and became the best nanny for your one-year-old daughter, for the fact that I know how he ran ahead of you to your crying baby, guarded the stroller on the street and ate a peach in half with the little mistress. And I remember you and will remember your kindness. And Monsignor too.

I don’t know if this is bad or completely bad, but I won’t be able to take home a shelter dog, I’ve already had a sad experience with traumatology and surgery. But I always have a warm attitude towards those who work in shelters, towards volunteers, they save, feed, give at least a particle of kindness and love, give them a home and hope for a happy life for their children. Is everyone attached lucky? Unfortunately no. And here there are exceptions to the rules.

But, alas, I cannot say the same about those who feed dogs near residential buildings. Yes, I know, they feel sorry for them, they feed. Well, take this dog home! She will be healthy and happy. Maybe. It’s quite possible that I’m wrong, but for me this is some kind of half-measure, half-love, or something. These dogs get used to people, stop seeing a potential enemy and become an easy target for cruelty. Oh, if only all the homeless had a roof over their heads, a bowl of porridge, and even some meat scraps. And those who cannot take them, would help with money, medicine, food. It would be dog heaven on Earth. If only those who get a purebred dog loved it with at least 1% of it, a dog’s love, both as a puppy and as an adult, and as an old and decrepit dog, as deaf, blind and sick. It would be dog heaven on Earth.

Why all these thoughts of mine? Often, in Mitino, I see a couple walking, a tall and handsome young man with a squat, short-legged mongrel with one erect ear and the other drooping. When I met them for the first time, we started talking, because a dog person and a dog person, that’s it. This ridiculous dog, ugly and indescribably charming at the same time, was adopted by a family from a shelter. This dog is smiling. I asked if there was always a smile on his “face”. It turned out yes, always. After all, we love him sincerely, not for his beauty, not for his medals, not for his breed. He is simply loved. He is happy.

Be kind to animals

Be kinder to animals
Children, like sponges, absorb all the information that comes to them from their parents and proudly look up to them. You should remember this and be kinder to animals.

Start with yourself, fellow adults! Try to pay attention to what is happening around you. How many times have you watched guys torture a cat or dog? Yes, you don’t have time, you have things to do, you’re in a hurry to get to work or a meeting, maybe you’re tired, but why should you just stop for a minute and make a remark.

Letter from a stray cat to his deceased owner

When I read it, I couldn’t hold back my tears.

I won’t be able to send this letter, You won’t be able to read this letter... These are the thoughts that keep you warm in the cold, these are the feelings of a stray cat.

This is the eye of my sparkling radiance, the one with which I met you at the door, spinning. If our endless separation means that I am closer to you within an hour.

Now I live on the street, it so happened, I couldn’t find a corner in our house, and often from the yard, from the trees, from the roof, I look desolately at the clouds.

After all, it will seem that I will suddenly notice you, see you, and not blink at the sky... ...show full text...

People, you are animals

I'm just a stray cat, I quietly wander through the streets. You will look at me through the window, and I will hum a song for you.

Hey master, you are passing by, you are still running and hurrying about business. If you don't look, you won't pet me. Tears flow down the cat's cheeks.

I am a cripple with a wounded paw, And I have a ragged tail, ... show full text ...

It's a pity that there is no way to show you a photo of this dog.

Look, isn't it handsome? But with such melancholy in the eyes. And you people pass by, you don’t see the dog’s soul in tears. Yes, I’m old and I’m barely walking, and I’m not much of a sniffer. But if you warmed me up, brought the little dog into your house, I would become a shaggy nanny for the children, a “vest” for you to cry about the past. But alas, not now, nor ever, yours will not be my warm home.

Homeless souls

Today is World Animals Day!

There are about 120 thousand stray animals in Russia. The source of their appearance in our country are abandoned or lost dogs and cats, as well as those that were born on the street. The purpose of the holiday: to draw attention to the problems of homeless animals, to be more humane and kinder to our smaller brothers.

A selection of statuses, aphorisms and quotes about animals

We offer you a selection of statuses, aphorisms and quotes about animals. Philosophical statements will help you rethink your attitude towards nature, and funny phrases about pets will cheer you up.

Animals are an integral part of nature. Some of them represent the world of wild nature, others feel like masters of human homes.

Is it possible not to love animals? After all, they amaze us with their devotion and intelligence. Unlike people, pets do not betray. They patiently listen to their masters and keep their secrets. Some people get a pet to avoid feeling lonely, others to discipline themselves, others to prevent their children from getting bored. Or maybe someone was just walking down the street, saw a fluffy little ball and took it home. Not many people can decide to do such an act. Most still prefer to have purebred cats and dogs, royal pigs or fish. In fact, the breed of your pet doesn’t matter, if you sincerely love him, he will definitely reciprocate your feelings.

Most often, cats, dogs, fish, parrots and turtles are kept in city apartments. The most loyal of them are dogs, the most affectionate are cats. Having a pet is not only fun, but also care and responsibility. Animals discipline their owners. They often serve as an alarm clock, but they are not very interested in the fact that you need to wake up at 7, not 5 in the morning!

You take a kitten, you get a cat

Statuses about animals with meaning will allow us to compare our own qualities with the characteristics of our smaller brothers. It always turns out that we are more evil, envious and calculating than the representatives of less developed species close to us.

1. In fact, happiness can be bought. You can even take it for free on the street. I'm talking about the puppy.
2. To a bad dancer, the bees are all wrong, and the honey they make is all wrong.
3. After another meeting and several missed deadlines, Vasily realized that it’s not so bad to be a little dog or some kind of domestic cat.
4. You don't have to be born one to be an animal. And in order to become a person, you must first step over yourself.
5. Only man is capable of laughing in this world. Otherwise he would not have survived...
6. Only a limited person will see luxury in a mink coat. The truly wise will see the limitations.
7. You know that question about what you would take from a burning house other than money, documents, etc.? So, I would take the cat.

Statuses are funny, sad and meaningful

The only drawback of the KITTEN is that sooner or later it turns into a CAT.

Children have this disadvantage too)

How much more wonderful life would be if we were all the way our dogs see us.

If every person had a pet, society would be more responsible and kinder.

Anyone who says you can't buy happiness has never bought a puppy.

If dogs spoke, people would lose their last friends.

We make friends with animals because we don’t hear the truth about ourselves from them...

- Honey, let's get a kitten! - No, you know, I’m allergic to animal fur. - It’s strange, you are allergic to a cat, but not to a mink coat?...

You don’t need to feed the fur coat and you don’t need to clean up after it either...)

The only member of my family who has a personal fitness trainer is my dog!

Train and don't be jealous!)

It's a good thing my cat can't talk - she knows too much!

Pets are like a diary: they know everything, but won’t tell anyone)

The guinea pig is a unique animal. She has nothing to do with the sea or pigs.

People also have nothing to do with deer, but some walk with antlers...)

Is it possible to throw away pets? If you get a cat, a dog, or whatever, they become part of the family! This is the same as throwing your child out onto the street!

Having an animal at home means taking responsibility for its life.

A dog only hurts when it dies.

The passing of a pet is tantamount to the passing of any family member...

Judging by the character of the cat, Ozverin and Scratch are added to Whiskas food.

It would be better if they added Anti-Fleas there)

What are our little brothers silent about?

1. Perhaps you don’t even realize that when you get a dog, you get a free job as a fitness trainer.
2. It’s not that I don’t like communication, but in most companies I feel like a guinea pig: I have nothing to do with pigs or the sea.

7. A cat suddenly coming into your bed and laying down peacefully next to you is the best thing that can happen in the morning.

About man and animals

Only someone who had never been an animal himself could come up with signs prohibiting feeding them.

If people were allowed to feed the animals at the zoo, can you imagine what they would bring them? Chips, popcorn, cotton candy...)))

— My wife loves animals. - And my vegetarian.

Mine likes to look after them, not eat them...)

They say that a dog is man's friend. I hope this huge Rottweiler without a muzzle is running to find out how I’m doing...

In the meantime, look for a tree and climb it...)

Do you know how pleasant it is to wake up not because the alarm clock piercingly shatters the silence, rattling your nerves from the very morning, but because a cat is purring in your ear, singing its cat song...

And the chorus of the song goes like this: feed me, feed me...)

Do you know why the oceans and seas are salty? The ocean is salty from the tears of sharks who just want to hug, but no one understands them!!

Tell me also that they are just flirting with people, and not attacking them...)

The Beast knows who he is and accepts it. A person may know who he is, but he questions everything. He is dreaming. He hopes. Changes. Growing.

Animals always have specific goals. It would do well for a person to learn from animals...

In fact, at the zoo, children learn their first lesson in cruelty. Take a closer look at what the ponies look like there, especially those that give rides to children. Tortured, old, sick, unfed. Because no healthy horse or pony would allow a child to be put on it. And it is necessary to instill an aversion to the circus from a very early age. The circus teaches children to have fun while watching other living beings suffer. I don’t want my son to go to shows whose performances are based on humiliation and mockery of other beings. When our children become adults, there will be a different world around, better and more humane, and we cannot drag old cruel fun into it. (A. Nevzorov)

But with us it’s the other way around: cruelty turns into a spectacle and brings pleasure to everyone.

Animals know much more than people. Dogs can sense an earthquake in advance. Birds fly halfway around the globe to find their nest. If people listened to animals more often, they wouldn't make so many mistakes. (Helen Brown)

People think they are smarter... naive.

But the fact of the matter is that for centuries it was not the stick that lifted man above the animals and carried him upward, but music: the irresistibility of unarmed truth, the attractiveness of its example. (Boris Pasternak)

If animals could play music, they would listen to it too.

Be kind to animals

Be kind to animals.
On the shore of the lake, the already grown-up children had fun: they rented a boat and rowed it to the middle. And there they began to throw little kittens into the water and see who could swim to the shore faster. No one made it...

Another group of kids tied the dog to a pole so it wouldn’t run away and began throwing stones at it. The dog could no longer bark, he just lay there and wheezed, but the sadistic children continued to mock the defenseless animal to the cheerful cries of their mothers.

You can collect hundreds, no, even thousands of similar stories.

Shouldn’t we people think about why we are so indifferent, sometimes cruel, and who do children usually follow as an example? You won't have to look for the answer for long.

A BAD EXAMPLE IS CONTAGIOUS.

The child wanted to have a cat or a dog. They buy him a puppy or kitten as a living toy. But when arguments begin about whose turn it is to wipe, clean up puddles and piles, the animals are simply kicked out the door. Or they are taken away and left to fend for themselves.

Quotes and aphorisms

Lion is the king of the animals. Until the lioness woke up.

The male is in charge until the female comes.

A house without a cat is not a home, but some kind of dog kennel!

And instead of advice they ask for food)

He who feeds a hungry animal feeds his own soul. (Charlie Chaplin)

Without a cat there is no home, without a dog there is no yard.

There should be animals in the house, then it will be clear that good people live there.

God created the cat so that man would have a tiger to pet. (Victor Hugo)

And also, so that there is someone to wake up for work.

The cat is a furry alarm clock. (Alfred Whitehead)

Only it always works a couple of hours earlier)

A DOG is the only creature on this planet that loves you more than itself. (Josh Billings)

Dogs are the most loyal friends.

When a person gets a pet, he takes responsibility for its life. It is very painful to watch homeless animals roaming the streets in search of food. Remember that we are responsible for those we have tamed.

Compassion is the best quality of a person

2. But I am sincerely surprised by the yard dogs. They look at everyone kindly, although they mostly receive negative things from life. Yes, they simply cannot survive any other way, but still...
3. Before you rant and fight for great causes, just try to be careful while driving and not hit animals.
4. Yes, people don’t have any soul, it’s all fiction. But dogs have it!
5. Maybe animals are not smarter than people, but this saves them from learning purely human meanness.
6. I want to believe that, together with robots and super-smart machines, man will be able to invent a way to produce meat without killing animals.
7. The world of wild animals is cruel, and neither man nor his tamed pets can survive there. But among people there are such individuals that it seems they could definitely do it.
