I also hate seeing these poor strays. I am a huge animal lover and wish I could take in every stray that I see. I just really wish something else could be done for these poor animals.  |

That kinda thing makes me cry! A few weeks ago there was a dog walking just outside my fence and you could tell she had puppies somewhere cause she was sagging. She was all boney and I felt so bad for her and her babies so I pulled all kinds of food outta the fridge and threw it over the fence for her. I was afraid to touch her cause she may have had rabies or something but anyway, I fed her lots of food! It was good food too! She got 1/2 lb of turkey and some bread and some spaghetti and another 1/2 lb of pastrami. After I fed her all of it and she ate it I started to wonder if she would get sick from going so long without food and then eating that much. I saw her a few more times after that then I didn't see her anymore so she musta moved away.  |

Glad to see other animal lovers...Willow that was great of you to feed her all that food. Having a full stomach is better than an empty one. I wonder where her puppies were though. It brings me to tears also...cause they are just such innocent creatures who deserve love and a home. thanks for the replies ladies.  |

Hiya Looney Girl..:) well, I've not owned a pet for many years...But, seems that I am never without one..lol..Dogs and cats just wander in and demand to be fed. My budget includes about fifty pounds of pet food..Hmmmmm..My associate is even worse than I am..She can't see a hungry animal..gotta feed it. Other day, I wanted some milk and she told me, "I gave what was left of the milk to Moon." (stray cat)...lol..Stay sweet and kind hearted, my friend...Write on.....  |

Almost all the pets I own are stray animals or unwanted ones. They usually turn out to be very nice pets. Except one, that we nicknamed "mean dog". I think his previous owners abused him and dumped him. Then we took him in and he attacked my little brother.  |

LOL...maybe thats why you always get stray animals cause you dont have any of your own. I was thinking of buying dog food and cat food for when I see another stray animal...its a good idea to have their kind of food laying around cause you never know right? so the cat got milk before you did huh?? LOL...I'm sure the cat needed it more than you anyway. thanks for the reply...keep feeding the strays as well :) |

yeah i hate it when people neglect their dogs or animals like that. i think people should be kind to their pets. i remember, our first dog was abused by her first family when she was a puppy, and she wouldn't even go down stairs when we got her because they had kicked her down the stairs so many times. but all she needed was a good home where the people loved her and took care of her. so next time someone sees a stray dog they should take it to the humane society or something so it has a chance at a good home.  |

Sad! We have taken in two strays cats and taken care of many sick or injured wild animals. Mostly we take 'em to the wild animal refuge (right down the road ^_^).  |

there was always this little yorkshire terrier running around where my cousins used to live and little kids would throw rocks and stuff at it all the time and pick it up by its hair, it was terrible, so my cousin took him in and took care of him, i love that dog! its sad how people can do that kind of stuff for their own weird benefit...  |

I agree 100% with you fire angel...good for you for taking good care of your puppy...poor thing. My aunt got a beautiful cocktiel bird but it came from a crack house...so for a long time my aunt couldnt get near the cage cause the bird would attack...the previous owners used to blow smoke in her face....so she is really scared of people. thanks for you reply. |

Sloopy that is really sad...if I see someone abusing an animal I'll make sure they pay for what they've done. Animals cant really defend themselves. your cousin did a great thing by taking him in...some people just have twisted minds to hurt innocent animals. thanks for the reply. :) |

Yeah, my and my mother are huge animal lovers. It breaks my heart seeing animals like that, my mom worked in an animal shelter, and was a vet for over 20 years, she said its unbeleiveable some of the things you see there:( .One of our dogs is a rescue dog, her old owners let her run about on her own, and they had cyotees!(sp?) She is VERY lucky that shes not dead, shes just an itty bitty dog. They just let her run wild, she was surviving off of sneaking into people dog/kitty doors, and eating cat food!:(  |

Of course... I love animals, and I hate it when owners don't take care of them. Of course, we have 4 animals and we let them go around the neighborhood, but everyone knows them so if they do see them, they either bring them back to our door or just say, "Hi Ruby! Hi Jack!" lol.. Our dog is so fat because we're scared we don't feed her enough. =P Luv,  |

MoonAngel I bet your mom saw a lot of terrible things working at that shelter and as a vet. I thought about becoming a vet but I would become so attached to the animals so I dont think I would have been able to handle it. Poor doggy...but at least she was smart enough to go through doggy doors to eat food even if it didnt belong to her...animals do anything to survive. thanks for the comment. :) |

LOL Lady thats good that everyone knows who your animals are...I bet its nice to let them run free and have fun knowing they will be safe. Its sad to see skinny animals but I'm not sure its a good idea for an animal to be obese...I feed my bird everything that I eat and people say he is the biggest cocktiel they have ever seen but I think he is just adorable...LOL...I bet your dog is adorable too. :) |

I am the same way. It also makes me sick to see someone get a pet then abandon it because they think it's too much trouble.  |
