Hear our prayer ... for animals that are overworked, underfed, and cruelly treated; for all wistful creatures in captivity that beat their wings against bars; for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry; for all that must be put to death.... And for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words. ~ Albert Schweitzer ~

I am the voice of the voiceless; Through me the dumb shall speak, Till the deaf worlds ears be made to hear the wrongs of the wordless weak. And I am my brothers keeper, And I will fight his fights; And speak the words for beast and bird till the world shall set things right. - Ella Wheeler Wilcox
