Too much attention is paid to and too much money is spent on keeping pets, while people throughout the world are starving.

Well, that certainly is a bold statement coming from someone who has a dog and a cat. What are you going to do if one of your pets needed medical attention?

As for the starving people in the world....I'm not even going there because my opinions are strong and would make people angry if I posted them here.

Actually, I think this thread belongs in the Doghouse.
