I could never work at an animal shelter. I would have to bring 9/10 of the furry devils home with me each day. It would break my heart day in and day out to see so many without a home. I can't even go to PetsMart because my heart breaks when I see the pets on display, even though I know they have a good chance for adoption being there. Really, just yesterday I drove past PetsMart and couldn't stop. Didn't want the heart ache. Can you imagine if I worked with CHILDREN TOO! I am never tempted to take a lawyer home....that's who/what I work with each day. LOL!

LMAO!!! I work with them too!!!

And I'm never tempted to take one home... *giggles*

Actually... I work at a law school..... which is worse, I gather... because it's the breeding ground...

Yes, its very hard. But the satisfaction at watching them go to wonderful homes makes it all worth it. I am lucky that my shelter is very clean and loving for the animals. We spoil them. And we don't euthanize. That makes me be able to handle it. I love watching the transformation from scared, sick dog or cat to friendly, loving kissy lap kitty or dog.

And I can never resist taking them home either, which is why there is an extra poodle in the house right now!!

Aw Zippy aren't they too cute for words - and if the second one down is Casper - well he's a twin to Bagel!!

I admire anyone who works in a rescue centre - great job.

here are a few acronyms often used on the internet (some used on PT regularly, some not):

btw -- by the way
imho -- in my humble opinion
lmao -- laughing my a** off
rotfl -- rolling on the floor laughing
ttfn -- ta-ta for now

There are bunches more, but I'm drawing a blank for now ...

AmberLee thanks for the translations! My son tells me that when you are IMing someone and you have to leave for a minute you say "BRB" (be right back). I feel like a dinosaur with all of this new stuff!
