everything

Mom is resting…its quite here…I’m not sure how many rescue people read this…but those who do must not have dealt with unadoptables..the animals that usually get put to sleep…those are the ones I had/have…the ones no one wanted…the last stop here…there is a fate worse than death…being torn from the only people that have ever loved you…becoming overly bonded..unable to eat while they are gone for more than a few hours…screaming when you just go to get the mail…ones with such special needs that even friends of your family can’t understand why they put up them.

In my heart…I don’t care what others think…because really those who don’t agree..aren’t thinking what’s in the best interest of the animals when they say putting them down isn’t an option..sometimes its the kindest and safest thing you can do for them…I don’t like extremist attitudes..every situation is different…maybe those who complained haven’t really bonded with a pet with special needs to understand that some just can’t be placed after being with you.

For those who can’t be supportive or understand I do the best for my animals cause I know them you don’t…go to hell…that is awful that people I thought were rescue are actually not..they don’t care about the feelings of the animals or their well being if you push giving them up…when they are the kind of animals I have…many of mine..I am their third, forth,etc home..final home…I was lucky they bonded with me…I don’t get the mentality of life at all costs..when that life would be miserable for them…that is scary that there are “rescues” out there that would rather cause additional suffering to a special needs animal…God help us all and the poor animals that are in their care.

My goal in life…is to be the kind of person my pets think I am.

Dont let what other people say get to you. They arent in your situation. They dont live your life. OF all the people in the world I would trust you to do what is right for your pets. I cant imagine the pain you are going through right now. I wish it was easier, I really do. Do what you have to and to hell with anyone else’s opinion!!!

You’re spot on, Ruthie, and doing all of the right things. I know your animals are thanking you for putting their best interests first, at the cost of breaking your own heart, when it came to making vital decisions regarding your mother’s care and their future. You’re a true survivor, and one of the people I most admire. You keep me believing in angels here among us {{{{{{Ruthie}}}}}} love, janie

Hang in there.

I know you well enough to know that you do not have an unkind or uncaring bone in your body. You have never made any decisions about the animals lightly, and I know this one was the hardest one you’ve ever had to make. I had some questions myself; after you explained things to me, I understood. YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON. Screw these idiots who are giving you a hard time! – B.

I volunteered at my local animal shelter until I went away to college, I fostered a couple kittens. The hardest thing WAS giving them up, I was so heartbroken when I had to give them back. I’m glad to know there’s someone else who feels the way I do about animals.
