Fête de l'animal en ville to raise awareness of animal welfare in Paris

It's the perfect way for children and adults alike to learn about the well-being of animals in the urban environment: the Fête de l'animal en ville! On October 12, 2024, from 2pm to 5pm, Parc Montsouris welcomes the general public, who can meet animals and the city's environmental advisors, and discover the different species that live among us through a range of activities.

The event, which is free of charge, offers a series of meetings and exchanges with some twenty associations and professionals working on behalf of animals, to discover their activities and attend demonstrations. The City of Paris honors the animals that share the daily lives of Parisians, whether domestic, farmed or wild.

You'll be able to find out about best practices for pet owners, human rights and duties towards animals, abandonment, animal abuse and trafficking, caring for injured wild animals, and animal mediation.
