The Paw-In-Tau
The Paw-In-Tau is a symbol of the compassion of St Francis, Patron Saint of Animals (T), manifested every time we help an animal in need (the Paw).
Symbolism of the Tau (Wikipedia)
Tau is usually considered as the symbol of Franciscan orders due to St. Francis’ love for it, symbol of the redemption and of the Cross. Almost all Franciscan churches have painted a tau with two crossing arms, both with stigmata, the one of Jesus and the other of Francis; usually members of the Secular Franciscan Order wear a wooden τ in a string with three knots around the neck.
