Day of the animals

On 4 October it is World Animal Day and that means that animals should get extra attention. Dogs, cats, rabbits, deer, birds, swans, butterflies, owls and all other animals get a special treatment on this day. Art Nouveau artists usually drew their inspiration from nature. It is not strange that elegant and wild animals and bugs, such as butterflies and dragonflies, were very popular in the Art Nouveau style in the 1900 period. At Antique Style Web Store, many products are available in which the animal plays the lead role, so do not just spoil your pet on this day, but also yourself or another animal lover by getting a special animal gift from Art Deco Web Store.

The date of World Animal Day goes back to the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi. The cared about the fate of those suffering from leprosy but also the poor, homeless, plants and animals. In 1929, during an international congress of associations that help protect animals in Vienna, it was decided that World Animal day should be celebrated on the 4^th of October. The purpose of Animal Day is to let people know that animals have rights and need to be protected. It is not just to spoil pets as many people also participate in Eat No Animals Day and do not eat meat and fish on 4 October.
