Happy World Animal Day to every creature who makes the world softer, funnier, louder, messier, and infinitely more worth being in.
Of course, I have to give a special mention to Ivy… my very important Health & Wellness Officer, emotional support supervisor, and tiny, soft manager who contributes to Angell Designs mostly by sitting near me, judging my work ethic, and reminding me that breaks are legally required when the cat sits on your keyboard.
Animals bring so much comfort, companionship, and joy into our lives. As a disabled business owner, I know how grounding that kind of presence can be especially on the days where life feels heavy, work feels big, or your nervous system is on fire.
Today is a reminder to care for the animals we love, support animal welfare where we can, and appreciate the small beings who make life feel a little more survivable.
