In recent years, the number of animal abuse cases has kept increasing. It is very common to hear that pet owners are cruel to animals. Some people hurt the animals badly, for example, cutting their tails, breaking their legs, and not taking them to the vets when they are ill. It is a must to stop this kind of cruelty to animals as protecting animals is respect for lives.
The value of life cannot be measured. Animals should enjoy the same basic rights as humans. Therefore, every pet owner should be responsible and kind to their pet. Pet owners, and anyone who wants to own a pet, must understand that keeping pets is a life-long commitment. Once you buy or adopt a pet, you should not give it up easily. Keeping pets is like raising children. What will you think if a mother gives up her child easily? Certainly, it is a thing people must not do.
Before getting a pet, there are lots of things to consider seriously. First, you must consider if you are willing to take care of the pet for the whole life. Second, you should consider whether you have enough time to care for the pet. You need to do lots of things for the pet, like playing with it, feeding it or taking a shower for it. For animals like dogs, you need to walk them regularly and groom their fur too. For sure, keeping pets can be quite troublesome, however, it is a responsibility of owners. Third, you should consider if your home can provide enough space for the animal and you can afford the daily expenses for the pet. In fact, above all, you must be responsible and be a pet lover.
Keeping pets is not an easy job, but it can bring you much joy. Some pet owners do not treasure them, and give them up on streets. The Society for the protection of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) provides a temporary home for the stray animals, cures abused animals, and finds volunteer pet lovers as owners of the animals. Resources cost a lot. If you are also one of the pet lovers, or you respect the value of lives, please support us. We mainly rely on sponsors and individual donations. Your support will help us to carry out animal protection work. The more you donate, the more animals can receive help! If you have the quality to be a good pet owner, please come and adopt a pet from us! Besides, we organize some activities to promote animal protection regularly.

We hope that our work can raise the public’s awareness of animal rights and problems of animal abuse. We hope to reduce the number of animal abuse cases.
