As I mentioned in my post yesterday, I decided to split up the Events & Workshops lists into US/Canada and the UK. There is so much going on in the next few months that keeping them all together would result in a ridiculously long list, plus I think this makes more sense.
As you can see, I’m not as up on what’s going on with national animal or pet celebration days in the UK – if you know of one that I have missed, please let me know. Also, I’m sure there is lots more going on as far as classes and workshops than what’s here. I’m constantly building my list, and if you know of an event that belongs here, please contact me and I will add it.
April is
National Pet Month
April 4 is World Rat Day
April 7 is International Beaver Day
April 16-24 is World Week for Animals in Laboratories
April 30 – 6 May is National RSPCA Week
