Quick To Boil
Do you know what can make me go from calm, cool and collected to insanely livid in less than a second? Hearing, reading or seeing someone abuse or neglect an animal. I will lose my shit!
The other day, some asshole drove in to the parking lot and dumped off their cat and then took off. The poor cat was so traumatized, scared to death that it bolted from the parking lot to hide in some bushes right next to the water.
The water that contains ALLIGATORS!
This cat does not know this environment. This cat will probably not survive. This is how I got two other cats that I now have, safely ensconced indoors, typically in my bed or on the couch. I’ll never forget sitting outside one day, on my table, enjoying the night when I saw headlights in the back parking lot. Because of where I was, I could not see the car. But it turned and left and the next thing I know, there was a little black cat, tearing around the parking lot, screaming in fear.
After some work and food, I managed to get that critter inside, where it’s safe. It is not safe for some animals where I live. Hell, most animals. Between the alligators and snakes and birds of prey, many animals do. not. make. it out here.
I am beyond disgusted by these POS!!!!!!! who do this to their animals.
People. If you do not want your pet any longer, TAKE YOUR PET TO THE HUMANE SOCIETY! I don’t CARE if you don’t want to face the people and tell them that you are a shitty pet owner. I don’t CARE if you can’t take the disapproving look you’ll get from the admin desk. Get in your car and drive there with your pet. Stand in that line, fill out the paperwork, tell them you’re a pile of shit human and release your animal to them.
These are lives. These are not objects. Those animals should not have to suffer because you are a selfish fuck! No, not all animals get adopted from the shelters but they have a FAR better chance at a good life than when you dump them off in the wilderness because you are too lazy and too ashamed of yourselves to do things the humane way.
I really don’t care if anyone likes this next statement: I hope, with every thing that I have, that the people who do this kind of thing suffer horrible, HORRIBLE fates. There is NO excuse to treat an innocent creature the way some people do.
No idea where this recent dumped off cat has gone to. It may still be around or it may already have met its demise. All because some prick could not take 1 hour out of their day to honor this cat with a chance for something better.
I see this way too often where I live and my faith in humans, while admittedly already extremely low, gets lower every time it happens.
You’re going to meet your karma one day. So don’t snivel and whine and cry about how you seem to be having a lot of bad luck. Suck it up and deal with it. Chances are, the hell you go through will be nothing compared to what you put that animal through.
What is wrong with people?
