Re: [Felvtalk] People who don't care about animals...
Ardy When people don't care about animals, you can make them give a crap by explaining to them that psychopathic killers start out killing animals. If you can't get them to give a damn about abused animals, they sure perk up when they realize that after practicing on animals, these killers move on to children and other people.

Dear Patti, As heartbreaking as this awful disease is, thank you for caring for these babies and giving them a loving home, even if it is only a short while.
