Saint Francis of Assisi is the patron saint of animals because of his deep love and respect for all of God's creatures, exemplified by his teachings, actions, and the many stories surrounding his life, including his preaching to birds and befriending animals. St. Francis of Assisi’s famous message was “Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.” St. Francis believed that all creatures, including animals, were his "brothers and sisters" and that humans and other creatures should be treated with equal respect and compassion. He is famously known for his interactions with animals, including stories of him preaching to birds and even supposedly persuading a wolf to stop attacking a village.
