Soft Paws
Or people who just leave tehir pets outside the whole time and just feed
it. Makes me wonder why they even have a pet. Alice That is quite common here. People will feed roaming animals, treat them if they need medical care, but they will not take the animal in, they don't consider it their animal. |

What bugs me is stuff like this guy who was buying a chain for his dog. I mentioned that it is better for the dog to fence the dog than chain it, and he was like, "I don't give a **** how the dog feels, I just want to stop him escaping." And apparently he just left his dog outside the whole time and didn't do much with it, I suppose it wast here as some sort of burglarly prevention (I wish people like this would just buy a house alarm). Or the view of, "it's just a cat" or "it's just a dog" and I]'m not going through all that trouble/money for it (for pets that didn't just start hanging out at their house). Alice -- The root cause of problems is simple overpopulation. People just aren't worth very much any more, and they know it.
