The second Sunday of May each year——Kattenstoet

Cat Throwing Festival originated in the Middle Ages, due to the plague epidemic and the mouse’s natural enemy cat thrown to death, in order to pray for the plague to leave a way for human life; Later, people felt sorry for the dead cats at that time, and made this day a cat throwing day to commemorate those innocent cats.

There are many pet-related festivals around the world, and the establishment of these pet-related festivals is derived from people’s love and care for cute pets.

Whether it is to share and feel the cheerful atmosphere of the festival with animals, or to set up a special holiday for the pets around them, behind these behaviors, it contains people’s respect and cherish for life, gratitude and care for pets. I believe that through these loving behaviors of people, more and more people will join them and give more love and respect to the lovely animals.
