 Pets back on the streets...
In San Antonio, my mother was looking to place a stray cat into a rescue. She was told that they do not take cats, only dogs because cats can live outdoors on their own. The rescue centers there have put the dog pound out of business (not sure how I feel about that one), and are not taking cats. I am not a cat "lover" but feel we should take care of all domesticated animals.
I feel these rescue societies are deleting a service to animals, as well as you said above, "charging too much for a rescue." Now S.A. will have a huge wild cat population which makes me sick. I can't bear to think of all those cats starving on the streets, and the life they will live.
I don't think all the "rescue" system is well thought out. It still remains to be a big problem.
Yes, I bought my Yorkie. We've rescued a dog before and had a temperment problem and due to having children had to rehome him to a person without children. I agree with the original post as well. |
