Activity:

Heart has a very kind heart and she adopts a sick and hurt horse. She takes care of it with love and so it recovers quickly. Even though the mare's baby is weak and ugly, she never thought about abandoning them. In Hong Kong, many pets are abandoned because they are old, sick or ugly. Sometimes, owners lose interest in their pets when they grow up and are no longer cute or are too big for their small flats.

There are several HK organisations which take care of abandoned animals and deal with animal welfare. Check out 'Star of the Month' at the Society for Abandoned Animals to read some heart-warming stories on abandoned animals. You can also visit the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals for more information on how to adopt an animal.

Do you have any pets? What kinds of animals are they? What should people think about before they decide to keep a pet? What would you do if you found an abandoned animal on the street?
