How Could They?

How can people be so cruel to animals? I just don't understand. I mean it took us months to find an apartment that accepted pets because we couldn't bear the thought of giving up Oreo. My friend Steven made sure when he had to move too far to take his dog with him that he found a home for it before he left. I'd rather live in a dump before just abandoning my babies to some shelter. I felt horrible when we dropped off a kitten to some random shelter. But we didn't know how to care for the teeny tiny thing properly and there at least he had a chance of being adopted.

~sighs~ I guess neither of those sad stories were as sad as some of the things I've seen on Animal Cops. Mom can't watch that show too long. Makes her too sad. Makes me sad too, but I like to see that the poor animals get rescued. But some of the things.... I wonder how people can be so cruel.... neglect... abandonment... Collars or chains digging into their skin... Throwing them away in the trash! Shooting them.... Making them fighters.... And the laws aren't stict enough to punish people properly. I wish these people could get the same treatment if not worse that they inflict on their so called beloved pets.
