As animal lovers, there are just a few things that we will never be able to understand. One of them being animal abandonment. Our brains will never fathom the fact that there are people who abandon their pets on the sides of the road, the highway, the dumpster, and whatever other horrible places these horrible people can think of. No matter the reasons you have for abandoning the animal, one should never just toss them in the middle of nowhere leaving them with no access to food, water, or shelter. It honestly terrifies us sometimes… to know that we're living in a world with so many cruel people around.
But like with anything else, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. And by that, we mean that while there is a lot of evil in the world, there's also lots of good, compassion, and kindness. Have a look through this recent thread we found, you'll see what we mean.
"Former neighbors moved away, left this sweet boy behind. I'll never forget the look of despair & hope on his face when I called his name. Now Jack's my baby. He's one of the most lovable cats I've had. I'll never understand how anyone could be so heartless as to abandon him. "
How could anyone abandon him?! He looks like the sweetest little boy, we're happy he's with you now!
"My guy wasn't abandoned, he lost his momma to COVID. We went to the Humane Society for a dog, saw him and heard his sad story. He was 10-12ish years old, thin & ratty looking (probably fear & grief) and had little chance of adoption. You guessed it, he's been ours for 18+ mos."
We hope every senior cat in a shelter gets adopted by someone like you ??
