Chat As an avid believer in TNR (Trap, Neuter, Release), and helping injured cats that are strays, ferals, or pets left behind by neglectful owners .. Daniel does what he can to assist in the fostering, medical care, or anything else that the pet may require. Daniel states that he is cautious of certain animal organizations based on the facts of how these organi- zations monies are spent. He prefers to take care of what he can with a more personal approach. Doing directly what he can to make a difference.“If I can help one animal a day, I am making a difference for that animal, for that life”. He continues by saying, “I also believe that since we are (supposed to be) the more intelligent species, we need to take care of the lesser species on the planet. “When I was growing up my mother had a saying that I still live by today, ‘To have reverence for the smallest of life is to have reverence for all of life.’”. Daniel applauds Fashion Designer Giorgio Armani for his recent anti-fur stance in his designs and is excited to see and hopeful other designers follow suit. Daniel currently lives in Beverly Hills, California and shares his home with his three cats; Alister, Jesse, and Lala. All three came into his life as rescues. Each cat has a different story and Daniel took them in and nurtured them to health with medical attention, food, and most of all Love. He adds,“They all get along! I feel a pet’s behavior reflects their owner’s behavior and home environment. I don’t consider them my pets, but my children.”

Believing that all living things should be treated equally, Daniel feels that animals should be treated with the respect and dignity that they deserve and not treated as an accessory or as a second class citizen.
It’s clear that Daniel’s heart belongs to the animals... and always will.
