Denise - that was a great post - I know Lisa and she IS a caring person and I think it did come out wrong - I've done that myself -
your story touched me - I totally agree - the love of a pet can make a big difference in the well being of many poor and lonely people...the elderly...the indigent ...and people like me and you -
I'm far from well off - I would sell my car to take care of my girls if necessary...BUT....the flip side is many cannot care for a pet nor know how - but that can happen in ALL walks of life -
I live in a middle class neighborhood and recently had to call the Houston Animal Cops to rescue a VERY neglected white lab mix - they HAD money - just let him get worse and worse and left him in the yard to die.
If I showed you the pictures I took ....you would be physically sick
....So money or no money - it's all in the heart of the person that dictates how their pet is treated. |
