[QUOTE="Fran, post: 237077, member: 3"] It makes me so angry. Pets are not disposable. How do people sleep at night knowing that something that depended on you for food and shelter has been left to fend for themselves. Ignorance, irresponsiblity and no sense of obligation to bringing that pet into their own. These aren't wild dogs/cats that lived their whole lives liiving on the land. Most of our dogs never learned that sort of survival from their moms. My two were at least given to a rescue organization so they were not left to find their own way. We had to sign a contract that if the pups didn't fit into our family that we would return them to rescue. How sad is it that they must make people sign contracts to act responsible. Maybe the appropriate consequence is to live in the same conditions their pet had to live in. A nylon tent in frigid weather sounds about right. Huge fines, community service and forbidden to own a pet again seems like a drop in the bucket but it's something. Jail is kinder than what abandoned pets live with everyday. It makes me sick.
