Common Sense Education Initiatives

CSA believes in educating the public by promoting true animal welfare and conservation. Children, in particular, need to learn that Companion Animals (Dogs, Cats, exotic pets) are frequently the victims of unknowing and uneducated suppliers and owners.

All Pets require commitment and responsibility. Abandonment, starvation, sickness, and loneliness are often the result of an “impulse” pet. Teaching and nurturing responsibility, love, and respect of animals, wildlife and the environment can shape who children become as adults. Even non-pet owners should be educated as to how everyone’s environment is affected by a lack of awareness and responsibility.

Educating Schools and Clubs

We currently provide educational tours to groups such as scouts, 4-H Clubs, Mom’s Club, etc. We host birthday parties, visit area schools, conducting presentations that enable children to lean about and interact with various animals. It is educational, but also a lot of fun for people of all ages, and the animals too!
Please contact us at (908) 859-3060 or fill out the contact form below with any interest in setting up a fun education session at your location or ours.
