Yep, I agree with you Michael, that's not right. I won't abandon my animals
no matter how poor we get. We'll figure it out. Gosh, back on Maui, I'd
watch people load their shopping carts and I was cringing over a $.33 cent
can of cat food and that was *all* I was checking out. It's like you're
going to give up your kid because you're having income problems? I look at
my little creatchtures (as my husband would say) as my kids. I love them.
I will always find a way to feed them. That's just now it is. They're my
family.
