My, that was sad, Bruce. But too many people treat animals as commodities. Radar, for example, would be unmoved by your post. When I get an animal, I am getting a friend for life. There have been instances where circumstances forced me to part with a dog or a cat, but its always been to as good a home as I could find for them. Never to the pound.

I, too, always found a home for my furry friends. I make a pact with them when I take them in to always look out for them, keep them safe, fed and cared for. Forever, even after my death. My will provides for them. Not a huge amount of money or really any at all, but I have friends who have sworn to take them in, along with all their familiar stuff and care for them in the same way I do in the event of my death or extreme disability.

Yes, but your lips may get a bit numb and tingly for a while.

Alone from night to night you'll find me
Too weak to break the chains that bind me I need no shackles to remind me I'm just a pris'ner of love For one command I stand and wait now From one who's master of my fate now I can't escape for it's too late now I'm just a pris'ner of lo-ove What's the good of my caring If someone is sharing those arms with me Although she has another I can't have another for I'm not free She's in my dreams awake or sleeping Upon my knees to her I'm creeping My very life is in her keeping I'm just a pris'ner of lo-ove [spoken:] Ah, what's the good of my caring If somebody else is sharing those arms with me 'Though you have another I can't have another 'Cause you see honey, I'm not free She's in my dreams awake or sleeping Upon my knees to her I'm creeping My very life is in her keeping I'm just a pris'ner - of love...

Actually the name of that is HOW COULD YOU? and it was written by Jim Willis in 2001. Its the mantra of allot of animal rescue groups.

This made me cry when I heard it read by the author at a publishing-day bookstore reading. The author is a kid from our school.
This is scanned from my copy of the book "The Star to Finish The Sky" edited by Scott Beal and published by Dzanc. The author is Maddy Hancock
