When you think of animals with tenderness, what animals come to your mind? Do you see a cow summoning its keeper at night to lay its head in his lap letting out its last breath? A calf jumping for joy running after a ball in the meadow. Probably not, because the animals we used to call farm animals are “invisible.” Those who spend a lot of time with animals know that they love, miss, grieve, envy, enjoy life and fear death. In all of this, they are so close to humans, and if only we don't look away from them they build deep bonds with us confirming that we are all one big family on this planet. The photos were taken at the Centaurus Foundation which rescues, abandoned, old, sick animals and those that were to go to slaughter. Thank you to the foundation, Diana and Karolina for making efforts to save the animals and keep them safe. Thank you for allowing the animals to trust us again. I also thank everyone who is in the photos: Anežka Tisíc Cows: Inka and Matilda,
