Scotland’s Animal Welfare Educators (SAWE) is a collaboration of organisations working to improve animal welfare. Established by the SSPCA, they consist of many organisations including Dogs Trust, Cats Protection, Blue Cross and PDSA.

Our mission is to enable more people to act in a cat friendly way, to improve cat welfare.  We do this by sharing expert knowledge and engaging learning experiences to motivate change and inspire more people to understand and care for cats. Our activities are grounded in evidence and experience – balancing the tried and tested with the latest scientific research, and challenging ignorance and misconceptions. Our ambition is to drive better care through better understanding of cats through our work and collaborations. 

As coordinators of World Animal Day, we offer various activities for teachers, parents, and guardians to involve children on October 4th!

UK Pet Food has been involved in the Pet Education Resources website since it was launched over ten years ago. As an organisation, we focus on pet nutrition and promote animal welfare through our work. We have a wide range of resources that may be useful reference material for teachers who would like to discuss pet care and nutrition with their students. We also have educational resources about feeding wild birds. You can also watch our short animation about how pet food is made.
