Description
It's impossible to determine how many stray cats and dogs live in the United States but estimates for cats alone are as high as 70 million. We humans like to think of ourselves as shepherds of this world but when you see how irresponsibly we perform this duty, it seems that we're failing at the job. We call cats and dogs our best friends and open our homes to them, yet so many of us fail to treat them as friends or family. When these "best friends" become inconvenient, many are neglected, mistreated or dumped off and left to fend for themselves. This is a sad state of affairs. We really should take up the roll as shepherds and protect and care for the other animals with whom we share this planet! We get so wrapped up in our busy lives in the little bubble that we have created for ourselves that we tend to ignore the needs of the natural world from which we came. Starvation is a horrible way to die, yet it happens to thousands of dogs and cats every day. What can one person possibly do to make a change? First and foremost, have your dog or cat neutered! Live trap strays and have them neutered. Find where the strays congregate and feed them! Volunteer at your local shelter and make a deposit of love that will be returned to you a thousand fold! Report suspected cases of animal abuse and/or neglect to the proper authorities. Support local rescue organizations with whatever time or money you can afford. A little love goes a long way toward improving the life of an animal waiting with hope for a forever home. Spread a little love to the precious creatures with whom we share this planet. Then you can look in the mirror and see someone who is making a difference!
