Final note: if you want to come here and bitch about people having pets they can't afford, keep walking. I'm too tired to get into all the details right now, but I have worked with animals and their people for well over a decade. So if this is your stance, you should re-examine your relationship with the concept of kindness, the current realities of our economy, and existing shelter/foster groups.
