[QUOTE="Star*, post: 308699, member: 4964"] Donna, I have been a member of the ASPCA since I was 10 years old. When we began volunteering as children our jobs were pretty kid-oriented. Open papers, stack them, wash dog bowls, dry them. As you do your time in the organization you get larger responsibilities. As you get larger responsibilities you realize the more you know the human race the less you like the majority of them. I can come off as a very blunt person at times but after witnessing the atrocities I have with animals? I have no patience left for cruel or ignorant people. I think of your little fella, I think of our Princess Pootie, or that chain dog doctor - then I think of how much money I do not have and what I would do if I did have. I can't have four dogs either, and even if I could? It's not fair for me to work and try to pay attention to four fur kids. Three spreads my time very thin, but we manage 1 hour of play a day nearly every day. Fourth as a foster really is pushing it so I know exactly what you mean. I believe very much there is a special place in heaven for people who abuse and hurt others. Without getting too ugly I'd want to belive it's like the rest of us are in Disney World with an American Express Card and no physical injuries and carte blanche and enjoying our familes and friends with no end in sight and people that are abusive are in a 1964 Corvair in 158 degree heat, with the heater stuck on, cracked vinyl seats,short shorts, no shirts, no wind, the widows won't go down, 10 of their best friends, complaining about life, who had tacos and beans for dinner the night before ,no bath for a month with rotted teeth are sitting in there with them wishing for Rock and Roll on the Radio and it's the Sound of Music weekend...when someone comes up and drops a hornets nest in the car, bangs on the hood, the horn gets stuck and there's not a bathroom for a hundred an thirty thousand miles. Then they have to sit there and watch the rest of us enjoying life while theirs flashes before them and everyone and everything they've abused walks by and says "I forgive you." then goes on with their life. Something like that. But let ME catch you abusing a dog or innocent on my watch? Hornets will seem like raindrops. [/QUOTE]
