I, too, am speechless upon reading this post. It personally hits home to me in a specific way, bringing back a painful memory I regret from over 20 years ago.

I hope others will read this and extract a better understanding of the toll doing shelter work takes on the hearts and emotions of those individuals who care enough to try and make a difference in homeless pets' sad lives.

Blessings, purrs and tail wags to all of you for your selfless deeds.
