Abstract
Animals have been beside humans for centuries, throughout
the time we have tried to understand and domesticate all sorts
of animals. There are many benefits to having pets in our lives,
including a happier and healthier life. However, without a proper
understanding of what the needs of the animals are, the worse our
relationship with them will be. Can we design a facility that will
provide proper pet healthcare throughout an animal’s life? There
is most likely little need for explaining why animal cruelty is wrong
but a need to understand what is acceptable and not acceptable.
This research strategy would begin with a qualitative analysis
based on interviews and messages from various resources to help
find any correlations or repetitions that could incorporate a new
emergency hospital that would adequately give proper healthcare
to pets. Intended for this facility, the intention to create spaces
that can provide emergency care, therapeutic care, physical
health, and mental wellbeing.
