And those folks are absolutely heroes--the kind that often get overlooked.<BR/><BR/>We got my dog (a Chow mix now 17 years old) through a humane society adoption at Petsmart. Despite her emotional baggage--if I ever met the monsters who owned her the first 18 months of her life I'd beat them senseless--she's the sweetest pup ever.<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>TLCMehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11356017077011774393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-13677641666670513872007-06-11T17:48:00.000-07:002007-06-11T17:48:00.000-07:00i wish i could adopt that orange kitty.i wish i could adopt that orange kitty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-28136655545655806302007-06-11T15:06:00.000-07:002007-06-11T15:06:00.000-07:00Oh Marley, you totally broke my heart!

When I hear about all the poor animals who die every year because there aren't enough people to take care of them...I feel like turning my house into a menagerie for them. <BR/><BR/>Whenever I see a stray dog or cat, I always feel like crying because I want to take it home *so* badly and keep it as my own.<BR/><BR/>I adopted my baby cat, Ash, from the Humane Society 2 years ago and he is the great love of my life.<BR/><BR/>I'm with you Marley..those who love animals have my heart!Dona Sarkar-Mishrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01777520950899454720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-27872955324937899402007-06-11T11:57:00.000-07:002007-06-11T11:57:00.000-07:00I used to work at a small humane society as the ed...I used to work at a small humane society as the education coordinator. Because it was so small, I worked as a kennel assistant as well. You do get attached. You do get your heart broken. You do end up with extra animals... I took home three cats and only worked there for a year! It's a tough job and kudos to those who work in it full time... I couldn't. <BR/>TeriTJ Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06140694185848604747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-26481252990513801492007-06-11T10:29:00.000-07:002007-06-11T10:29:00.000-07:00I'm with Tina, Marley.

Fabulous--thanks! <BR/><BR/>And tying back into my favorite book/movie from a blog post a few weeks back, I remember telling a friend if I had been a character in The Stand, that I would have stayed behind (rather than made the mecca to Mother Abigail) because it seemed the cats were immune to the illness, and I wouldn't have been able to leave them...TinaFerrarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14356148823775352938noreply@blogger.com
