I think the point is that people who are stretching their finances while on drugs (or assisting friends on drugs) can not be relied on to be reliable pet owners. There is no offence to addicts, except that their judgment is not clear when they take on pets. This is how many end up in the street. I work with addicts so I have had the heartbreak repeatedly of seeing "pets" come and go from homes...best I can do is mention that there are discounts available for spays etc. and pass on a phone # but they have to do the leg work and then don't. That lack of follow up, even though the intention is there, is why allowing an addict to adopt is a bad decision. Moosmom is being a good screener by saying they are all taken!!!
