How do you say no?

Archy & Binky came from PetSmart, too. We decided to adopt in 2000 because our last guy was alone and we missed having multiple cats.

At first we were only going to adopt Archy, but someone called and asked us if we would take his brother Binky (who we had considered), we couldn't say no!

It was a happy day when we brought them home. And, it's still happy days here with them.

I know the feeling, though....I always go visit the adoption center.

I can't even go to PetSmart when adoptions are going on. I can't go to the shelters or Humane Society either. I just can't take the heartache any more. I rescued for a long time and while I know I brought comfort to many cats, I still didn't even make a dent in the overpopulation. I still donate and do what I can to help but I can't go to those places because I want to bring every cat and dog home.

I know what you mean. I have a friend who volunteers at a horse sanctuary, because if she volunteered at a shelter she'd end up taking ALL the animals home. (She wants to take the horses and donkeys home, too, but the size of her yard keeps her from doing that.)
