I have purposely not come to this thread at all since it was brought to my attention by Brianna posting a plea for help in Dog General. I knew that I would become angry and upset. But, now that I have, I see that I am not the only one who feels this way. Michelle and Catty1 I truly believe that you are both very good ladies who have only the best interest of the animals at heart, and I applaud you and your good hearts for that. But, I also believe in this case you are enabling a situation that should never have happened to continue. Do I want these animals taken to a kill shelter and put to sleep, of course not. Do I want any true animal lover's pet (as I believe Bri is) taken to a shelter and put to sleep? Again the answer is no. But I do not have the money, time, patience, nor do I feel it is my place to right the wrongs of every irresponsible pet owner out there. I feel for Bri and her mother. They need to take care of themselves first and never should have brought the animals into the situation that they did. It is nice of you ladies to want to help. But do not chastise those that feel differently than you do. I personally think that anyone who really wanted to help these animals would be putting much more time and effort into finding suitable homes for these animals than in collecting money for a temporary fix.
