Put Animal Magic into your life
There are lots of ways in which you can get active and improve your wellbeing with - or for - animals. Your contact with animals and their involvement in your life can happen in many areas - career, volunteering, health, fitness, happiness - even financial! More...
Coming Up...
It's Take Your Dog to School Day on Friday, 10th October, if you've got kids. Why not borrow a dog? The event is to raise money for Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
Starting on 11th October, European Shark Week gives you an immediate opportunity to get active with your fingers and sign the petition urging the EU to put a plan together to conserve the shark. There are just 30 shark species left in Britain and half of them are on the way to extinction. Click here as your first step to being active for sharks. There are also events throughout Europe.
Try new ways to exercise...
Let being with the animals or helping them be your motivation, rather than "exercising' for the sake of it! Harness your love for animals to your fitness and wellbeing goals and create a win-win!

A big problem for many cat owners with cat flaps is that they find other feline friends intruding into their home. There's a fantastic microchip cat flap to stop this happening - and you also get to control when your own special cat goes out. Miaow..
I like to feel safe in my own home. |
