Great post!

Along the same topic: On every pet discussion board in existence there are situations brought up where animals need homes or donations for medical care. Every posters heart goes out in these situations or they wouldn't be participating in pet discussions at all.

Yet we read over and over again, "I would help but I can't" followed by various assorted excuses such as "too many pets, too far away, no room, no money" etc. Legitimate as those excuses may be--posting them is redundant! We'd all like to help but we certainly can't help them all. That's a fact of life! Redundant excuses don't help the pets in need or provide a solution.

Sometimes simple verbal support without listing excuses is helpful enough!
