St. Patrick's day might be fun today and we perhaps today associate St. Patrick with fun. But the reality is that St. Patrick was just a man and his life was hard. But his life was not unlike the lives of many animals today.
At age 16 St. Patrick has kidnapped from his home in Britain and taken to Ireland by pirates from Ireland. Travel back in the 400's wasn't so easy as it was today. Being kidnapped meant being suddenly snatched away from his family.
Sadly over 1500 years later we are still kidnapping. The farmer steals the baby calf away from its mother so that humans can have milk. Animals are captured in the wild and taken away from their families for either food or amusement. Breeders of dogs, cats and other pets give away the children of animals in exchange for money-children that are not theirs to give away.
