What are your thoughts ? Does your parish do this blessing on Saint Francis’ feast day?
Yes. I took mine a couple of years ago. It was good for him and I enjoyed socializing

I get the connection with St. Francis. Is that the only connection for blessing animals? In other words, if St. Francis wasn’t associated with animals at all and no other Saint was, would there still conceivably be a blessing of the animals? If so, wouldn’t other living things also be blessing-worthy, like plants, etc?
