Describe the challenge you want to address:

The challenge with animals and their rights is that they aren't as protected as animals. They are more prone to being abused or abandoned. There's always stray cats running under cars and into houses around where I live. In addition I've seen and heard of stories in which cats are abandoned and dogs in the middle of nowhere.

What is the solution to the challenge?

- Create more shelters: with more shelters there would be less strays on the street and they would have a name and food.
- Service trucks: with free services people are encourage to keep their pets as they don't have to waste money
- Adoption fairs: having fairs for animals allow for the animals to have a chance to be taken home
