Homeless dogs and cats are being shot, poisoned, and set on fire in Morocco, despite a royal order to end the massacre – urge Moroccan officials to act now! #MoroccanMassacre https://t.co/fNpJoWiShb
I am not your experiment. I am a dog. A life. A soul. A heart that feels pain. 🐾💔
Stop testing on dogs. Stop treating innocent lives like they don’t matter.
They deserve love, care, and protection — not suffering.
Be their voice. Speak for those who cannot.
Actor Mark Ruffalo has voiced support for a campaign calling for an end to the reported killing of street dogs in Morocco ahead of the 2030 World Cup.

Did you ever question everything? I do.
I was sitting in the beach just after sunrise this morning with my 2 dogs and I came across a man taking his buffalo swimming and bathing him. He loved that animal and the 2 of them had a deep bond as they spent 30 minutes in the water. He has the same bond I had with Hank and Chance beside me.
It’s my favorite time of the week. Most people are hungover in bed. The tourists aren’t up yet. After working all week I give myself 30 minutes to think before the dog madness continues.
Lately I’ve been feeling a bit down looking at the world. Everything seems to be about money. Every human is trying to amass power, wealth or fame at the expense of everything else. People don’t even look at each other any more instead preferring their phones. Image and status is everything. The world seems driven by anger, consumption and a total disregard for others. We’ve crossed the rubicon in many worrying areas globally as a society.
I think I’m just at the sharp end of it in Samui as the island gets taken over by tourists and people building villas. I see everything tossed out from rubbish and local customs to the dogs I try to help. Humans care so little for the world we live in and it’s really starting to show.
My mission is to help the world’s street dogs and I’ll need to use the technology, capital and systems of the modern world to do that but it pains me to live in that world. I’ll only do it for the sake of the street dogs. AI is 100% taking most of the jobs no matter what anybody says, the wealth divide is growing and the unfortunate creatures like the dogs will continue to suffer most.
As I sat watching the man washing his buffalo and the sun rising I just longed for a simpler life. A life where humans and animals lived together peacefully and respected the land rather than chasing meaningless paper wealth and fake status.
All I can try and do is build a small corner of kindness and compassion with wonderful people to help as many dogs as possible. No matter how helpless some of us feel in life the street dogs really have no voice and very few humans on their side.
Be kind to each other ❤️
In the United Kingdom, animals are now legally recognised as beings capable of experiencing emotions such as joy, fear, and pain.
As of 25 May 2023, the Animal Welfare (Sentience) Act took full effect, and the government appointed the first Animal Sentience Committee to support its implementation. Under this law, ministers must consider scientific evidence about animal feelings and welfare when making policy and new regulations.
This development follows over three decades of advocacy, beginning in 1988, by campaigners pushing for legal recognition that reflects scientific understanding of animal sentience.
The newly established Sentience Committee will review and report on how government decisions affect animals’ emotional well-being, ensuring their interests are formally considered in public policy.
This marks a significant step in UK animal protection law, reinforcing that animals’ internal lives matter in governance and setting a precedent for future welfare standards.

Pete Wicks faced criticism when he said ~ “I prefer dogs to most people. Dogs never let you down or gossip about you, give me a dog any day. At least dogs don't take offence when you say something they don't like! At least dogs aren't two faced, they either like you or they don't and they're usually a good judge of character.”
RT if you agree with him ~ I certainly do.
Sending love to anyone who has ever lost a pet. They are more than just pets. They become family and friends to us when they enter our lives.

In the early 1990s, while filming Mrs. Doubtfire in San Francisco, Robin Williams made a quiet request.
He asked the crew to hire a few people from a nearby homeless shelter.
No press. No explanation. He didn’t want anyone to know why.
Later, an assistant director revealed that Robin did this on every film. He insisted that at least ten people from shelters be given jobs—catering, cleanup, production help. By the end of his life, nearly 1,500 people had worked because of him.
One man hired on Mrs. Doubtfire said, “He treated me like I’d been there forever. Joked with me every day like we were old friends.”
Robin never talked about it. Others did—after he was gone.
In the late 1980s, after a stand-up show in New York, Robin slipped into a shelter alone. No cameras. He brought pizza, sat on the floor, and listened. One man said later, “He didn’t ask about our mistakes. He asked what made us laugh as kids.”
During Good Will Hunting, he again asked the studio to hire from shelters. One man saved enough to rent an apartment. Robin bought him a suit for job interviews. “Everyone deserves a second act,” he said.
Shelters later discovered large anonymous donations. One Los Angeles shelter only learned the truth when a thank-you letter came back marked “no such address.” A worker recognized the handwriting.
Whoopi Goldberg once said, “He didn’t want applause for helping. He wanted action.”
While filming Patch Adams, Robin visited a shelter in West Virginia carrying boxes of socks, gloves, and coats. When asked why, he smiled and said, “The weather’s turning. Cold doesn’t care if you’re tired.”
Even on tour, he’d walk streets at dawn, handing out coffee and sandwiches. When a guard asked why, Robin replied, “Because this is where people are.”
Robin Williams didn’t perform kindness.
He practiced it—quietly, consistently, without witnesses.
And that may be the greatest role he ever played.
