There are various kinds of animals in the world. Some of
the animals can be used as pets and can live in our houses like cats, dogs and cows. While some of them live only in forests like elephants, deer, and lions. Animals are useful to us in one way or other. We must love the animals regardless of their type and where they live. Like human being’s animals are also the creatures of God. Animals are equal sharers of natural gifts with men. But it is a pity that men treat animals cruelly. They kill animals to eat their meat. They kill certain other animals to conduct medical experiments. Many people hurt the animals and they like to hunt these animals for food or for fun. It is considered a very wrongful act. Animals also have a right to live. We can show our kindness towards animals in a number of ways. We should not break the nests of the birds. People beat the bullocks with lash to make them run faster and it should be avoided as it hurts them and causes pain to them. Torturing the animals in one way or other for our benefits should be avoided. If we keep animals as pets in our houses, we need to take care of them properly. Some people express the view that if animals are not killed, they will attack human beings. But such people are not right in holding this view. All animals are not dangerous. Nor do all animals kill human beings. Life will become impossible without animals. They must be protected at all costs. Special forests should be made to protect animals. Birds should be kept in sanctuaries for security and safety. Hunting and killing of animals should be prohibited. These are some of the many ways by which we can show our kindness towards them like Keep water pots outside your house for homeless dogs and birds. Offer food to hungry animals. If we show kindness towards animals, they will never try to harm us. We one cannot be kind to animals, he cannot be kind to other peoples too. So, it is important to understand the value of kindness and why we need to be kind towards everyone. It is our responsibility to protect the animals and to be kind towards them. Teaching children to care for and respect animal life lets them know the importance of being kind to all creatures, whether great or small. Learning kindness to animals at an early age can benefit children as it helps them become better and more compassionate individuals as they grow. Last but not the least have love and kindness in your heart, then you will automatically understand how to keep the animals around you happy. Kindness and justice to animals is an essential part of human virtue. They deserved kindness because they are dumb and helpless and cannot plead their own cause. Cruelty to animal is often due to the thoughtlessness and lack of imagination.
