Every year, on the third Saturday of August, the world observes International Homeless Animals Day. It’s a reminder that, just like children, animals are vulnerable and need our protection.

In Iran, where no animal welfare law exists, dogs and cats have no rights at all. Their lives are often short and filled with hunger, fear, pain, and displacement. But change is possible—if we act together.

✨ How you can help:

  • Don’t buy animals—adopt instead.
  • Spay/neuter your pets and support sterilization projects.
  • Care for homeless animals through food, treatment, and compassion.

This isn’t just the job of a few—it’s a responsibility we all share. Together, we can lighten the burden and give these animals a chance at brighter days. 💙🐾
