Ken Amante may be a 9-year-old boy from a little town. From a young age, Ken had a special place in his heart for animals.
So when he started getting to school, he got into the habit of feeding and petting local homeless animals. Soon, Xiaoken spent all his pocket money to feed the stray animals. He would slip away bag full of food from his home to feed the poor animals. Ken’s parents were at first very suspicious of their boy’s “shady” behavior. But once they gradually learned about his noble pursuit, they decided to offer him their wholehearted support!
With time, Ken grew more and more agitated at the endless suffering of the neglected homeless animals. His heart would bleed whenever a street dog would be put down due to regular illnesses like sores and mange. But rather than being a passive spectator, Ken resolved to open a no-kill animal shelter of his own!
In this video, Ken narrates how he built “The Happy Animals Club,” his no-kill shelter, from scratch. Today, Ken feeds and cares for several sickly and starving animals. He’s learning the essential medical aids that are required to tend to an animal. Donations to Ken’s noble shelter are often made on their website here.
Ken is actually an idea of all of us. At such a young age, he took the initiative to help dogs be more peaceful than most people in their lives. Ken’s goal is to save lots of as many pets as he can from being put down. Let’s share his story and encourage others that we will all do our bit to assist those in need too!
