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.

I have read a lot on the subject of sociopaths and criminals, and most of them 
started being cruel to animals as young children.

It's also amazing to me that there seems to be no middle ground for cats - 
people either love them or hate them, and I don't understand why. I personally 
brought home all kinds of strays as a child and my parents either let me keep 
them, or they found good homes for them. I had dolls but preferred to dress up 
my cats and push them around in doll-buggies. They didn't seem to mind a bit! I 
think it is important for parents to allow their kids to have pets and care for 
them, to cultivate a caring for animal life.

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.  Martin can now play with your other kitties (Joe, Clayton, Apache, & Charlie) until you meet all of them at the Rainbow Bridge.

 

Sleep Soft, little Martin...

It is frustrating.  People say they are just animals, but even so, they deserve 
respect and kindness.  Lest we forget that science considers us animals 
descended from apes.  Does that mean we do not deserve kindness and respect.

Thank you so much...my actual name is Patti.   Unfortunately, I no longer have 
internet service at my home..(too many vet bills).Yes, Martin was FELV..I 
had known that, but still had him re tested recently.   He passed 
quickly..I tried the LTCI injections with my first FELV.spent thousands.   But 
my little Joe ultimately died.I HATE that disease..  anyone here may 
telephone me any time...due to me not having internet...most days.   Area code

Thanks for being there
