As I was ringing up my groceries and cat supplies, the checker asked me "How many cats do you have?" "Six", I answered. "Wow, really, six?" I said "I had 8 not too long ago but 2 of them died". "Aaaw" she said, "why do you have so many?" (Funny but I don't think of 6 as being a lot of cats any more.) I answered "They're all rescues w/special needs or that were badly abused or abandoned, special cases you might say". She said "Y'know, they put animals in zoos for people to look at. I don't understand why they don't put cats and dogs in cages for people to look at. "They do", I said, "in rescue agencies and the Humane Society and the pound, etc." She said "No, I mean they should charge admission". I couldn't believe my ears! I said "What kind of life would that be for them? It would be impossible to do anyhow. There are far too many of them. If people would just be responsible and spay/neuter their cats and dogs, the population would greatly diminish". She said "Yeah but they won't so they should use my idea". There was no point in continuing the conversation w/this person. Unbelievable!
