Companion Animals
They share our homes, our hearts, our sofas, and our snacks—so how do we ensure kids know how to care for and respect them? We provide resources to help students see these animals as individuals with unique personalities and needs , so they’re more likely to become lifelong advocates for all animals. We help students learn how to care for, respect, and truly understand the animals closest to them, setting the stage for a lifetime of kindness.
