I'm beginning to think that mental illness is more an issue with humans and animals get it figured out. They value life more than humans do, whether it's theirs or not. A very sad commentary on humanity today
I had someone bring into my rescue two baby kittens who were put in a sealed trash bag and thrown out of a moving vehicle. It makes me sick. I mean, why seal the bag? It's disgusting to think that people actually do this. One went to Ft. Lauderdale to her new furever home and the other is currently scratching up my couch.
I'm with Yzette on this one, not clicking on the link. It's horrible I can tell. And omgosh ilovebdj! I honestly don't know how those kind of people can live with themselves with doing things like that. They don't have an ounce of feelings. Thank god for people like members on these boards who DO care! If there weren't people like ya'll, I just wouldn't want to live in this world!
I can't click on the link-but someone told me about it-it makes me sick why people think this is acceptable...I could never hurt a kitten or a dog or a bird..yay for Reagan!!!!
Every single one of my pets is a rescue. Not from a rescue organization but from the idiot, heartless, POS in Miami.
The cats are from the ******** who dumped them off in the Everglades. In fact, (I used to live and work there), I was out one night and watched as a car pulled up near me, stopped for two seconds and then raced off.
In the shadows I saw a little black cat running around, scared. I then watched it run off in to the brush and shortly after, it started screaming.
(No, I did not know that the car was dumping a cat off....I would be in jail if I had known that.)
I put food out and over the course of two weeks, I finally won the trust of that cat and she is currently sitting on my couch, up here in Maine, with the other cats I rescued from the Everglades that ******** dumped.
My dogs were dumped out of a moving vehicle in to traffic in Miami. There were three puppies, (3 months old), and by the time they were picked up, one had already been hit and killed. I have the other two.
I know, for a fact, that if I ever SEE anyone do anything like this, I will, undoubtedly, end up in the slammer because there is NO. WAY. I can remain calm and not inflict massive bodily harm on someone I catch doing something like this.
I can keep cool in almost anything but not that.
It's overwhelming what people do to animals. We are the "superior" ones, eh? I think not.
The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that there are people out there who work tirelessly to help animals, go above and beyond, and find them new homes.
I just wish rescues would work together. Unfortunately, some rescues seem to forget why the hell they got in to rescue in the first place and let it go to their heads, expand their egos and it becomes all about them, not the animals anymore.
Work together, it's not about you! Work together, you can save more!
And I think that those who are disgusted need to get up off of their butts and DO something about the light laws for animal abuse, torture and neglect. They won't get changed just by bitching about them on City Data. Get up, write letters, get petitions going, make phone calls, do something!
Its not the pets but the "owners" that is ultimately responsible with their own "conscious" act.
The human that is "the sickos".
