QSAL: Us "Pet Listeners" are here for you. Vent all you want. We're all filled with admiration for your dedication and endurance.

Take heart in that I think there is some improvement in pet responsibility by owners. Not everyone lets their cats roam any more. And many more of them neuter their cats than when I was a child. LOL when I was a kid (eons ago) no one would have spent money on vet bills for a cat.

I suppose that picture doesn't fit with your busy week of cat rescue. But it does mean that there's a chance that the cats you save will end up with good furever homes and people who love them and care for them like children.

Yes, those kittens you fed all night long may grow up to be somebody's baby. So on behalf of their future meowmies, we thank you!

On the other hand, WE'RE (still) ALL SICK AND TIRED OF IRRESPONSIBLE PET OWNERS!

P.S. Have you thought of changing your home phone number in a first step in quality-of-life improvement?
