As sad as the topic of cruelty to animals is, there is an important and positive side to reporting on it. I’m referring to the kindness and dedication of people who care about animals, who rescue them, who give them loving homes, who fight for their rights. In short, I’m referring to the power of love. I was appalled and shocked by what I found in terms of human cruelty to animals, but I was also equally surprised to see the gigantic amount of organizations that help them, and try to counteract and confront the evil-doers. It is on this positive note that I will begin this essay. By viewing the photos below, an eloquent example of the miracles that love and caring can promote, we can be reassured that there is hope. We can also appreciate the desperate need that exists for each one of us to get involved in the fight for the protection of animals from human cruelty.
This is "Armella" when she was rescued, and Armella after having been loved and cared for.
