What wonderful babies!!! They are all gorgeous and seem so sweet. It is heartbreaking to see them caged but as they like to remind me at the shelter...it beats the alternative!
I can only tell you from my personal experience that it is overwhelming enough at times but I would have to be put into a mental hospital if I volunteered at a kill shelter. I know that is something that I could not handle. You can't help but to fall in love with the critters and I find I really miss some of them when they are adopted. If I had some fun and loving moments with an animal and came back in a few days and it was dead because of a space issue or it had been there to long, I would freak out! You know this stuff happens but I couldn't deal with it once I knew the animal.
On a better note-you might be able to make a difference and help stop some of the killing! Fresh minds with fresh ideas can make a difference! One person can make a difference and if you managed to save only a few of the many that is a few that would have died otherwise. I think it would take a very special person to work in a kill shelter and that would need to be a very personal decision.
Let us know what you decide and you know we are all here for you!!
