New York (AFP) – New York worshippers celebrate mass at St. John the Divine Cathedral alongside hundreds of animals — including a camel, a sloth, snakes, ostriches, geese, cats and dogs — which all queue up for blessings on the day of the feast of St. Francis of Assisi, known as the patron saint of pets and animals.
