How do you say no?

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.)
