While it may seem like a slightly unusual topic for a humanitarian non-profit like CARE, we’ve seen that in many cultures, cats are more than just pets; they are companions that transcend barriers and bring people together.
As an organization dedicated to human welfare, we recognize the therapeutic value of animals, and the joy they bring to people’s lives.
On this International Cat Day, we want to take a moment to appreciate the ways cats contribute to our mental well-being and foster a sense of community, and so we’re sharing just a few of our best cat photos from some of the 111 countries where we work.
Please join us in celebrating International Cat Day by sharing your own photos and stories with the hashtag #CatsForHumanRights, and help us deepen this connection that inspires empathy, compassion, and understanding in our broader humanitarian efforts.
