 Foot in mouth..
The other day, my husband took me to the local humane society. It's my idea of a fun date because I get to see the animals, play with them, and socialize with them. I know, I'm really weird. But anywho, after we were done, we were walking out and I was talking with one of the workers who was telling me about their fund raisers they were doing and what not, just general animal chit-chat, when a women came in with the cat and was going on and on about how this is year five and she can' t keep, "The damn thing.." and making a fool out of herself. Meanwhile, this cat looked terrified in it's crate, I'm not a cat person but I felt for the poor thing. Well the humane society worker tried to explain to her that there's a $25 cash drop off fee, and if she didn't want to drop the cat off here, then she could give her to a kill shelter where she would most likely be euthanized, or surrender her to a local rescue. Well the women blew a gasket going on and on about how she doesn't have $25 dollars and that this cat has cost her enough.
Well, I went outside with my husband to look at the horses and literally vented about how if you can't afford an animal, what's the point of getting one, and that you're their voice. How stupid people have become, and how much I like animals better than humans (I was in a real B*tchy mood). Well I said this right in front of a younger guy and his daughter. They just kind of looked at me and turned around. Well I noticed the woman came flying out of the office, with cat carrier in hand and met up with the young man and his daughter and they all got in the car together.
