~ Animal Welfare ~
Catholic Concern for Animals: Actively promotes
compassion to animals amongst the Catholic community.
Apart from the above organisations we support:
• Animal Protection Agency (www.apa.org.uk). They
monitor the illegal sale of birds and the general abuse
of Parrots and other birds.
• Hillside Animal Sanctuary (www.hillside.org.uk)
• International Fund For Animals (www.ifaw.org): They
rescue animals like bears, elephants from countries
where they are abused.
• Mare and Foal Sanctuary, Newton Abbot
• Animal Care in Egypt: They educate the local people
in taking care of donkeys which are used as a means
of transport.
• The Mahew Animal Home.
(www.mahewanimalhome.org)
• Network for Animals: Rescues dogs in Philippines
where they are killled for food
• Peta (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).
High profile organisation which promotes
vegetarianism and fights the fur trade and all animal
abuse.
• The Dog Trust: Gives shelter to abandoned dogs and
finds loving homes for them.
• World Society for the Protection of Animals: Rescues
abused animals like bears, horses and donkeys
where ever they are abused.
There is a whole world of cruelty to animals, birds and
aquatic animals. They are abused in circuses,
laboratories and so called sports. Jains should be actively
involved in every aspect of preventing cruelty to animals,
they should set a personal example by avoiding buying
leather goods and anything in which animals would have
suffered. Don't eat honey, avoid milk as milk production is
associated with beef production. Every Jain has to look
within and become proactive as days, weeks and years
are passing away and such a opportunity may not come
in our future births!
