We're FINALLY home and some ranting...

They sound like a very dysfunctional family to me, but it does not excuse cruelty of any kind, Gary put it so well, he is infact a Bully, who needs to be shown a thing or two.

kim it is not that country folks have a different view of animals and how they treat them, you have to live on a farm to know, some parts of farming are not always nice, for instance a weak animal may not have the chance to survive, because there just is not the time to give it the undivided attention it needs, and unfortunately money does come into it,it is not something I liked about country life, and still donot to these days,why I would never go farming, its kinda of hard to explain really to a city person., maybe this is why you feel as you do, that I can understand.

I have lived in the city since I was 12 years old, and it is here that I see all the misery, wild toms scrounging the neighbourhood and many cats dumped, as I live in the university area, alot of students get pets and then just leave them here when they leave, we also have a lot of Asian students who get pets when they are cute and cuddly and then when they go back to Asia they either dump them or leave them at the SPCA, of course this is not something only students do, but my area is worse because of this, it is heart-breaking.
