Every time I see stories of abandoned or neglected pets, I'm outraged. Our four-legged furry friends deserve care and comfort.

I happen to be a cat person, but cat, dog, gerbil, whatever, when we take them in, we are obligated to them to the end of their lives.

Her eyes are also deep blue. She has been playing with my bearded collie. This dog was evidently kept in a garage. She loves her toys and squekie toys in particular

Aussies are escape artists and this puppy got out twice the first three days. We had to redo parts of the backyard and front gate but now she cannot escape. My youngest found that using a squeak toy will get her into the car.

The other day my wife was in the garage getting something out of the freezer. In the meantime, our 15 year old Bichon walked past her and was exploring the garage. About ten minutes later, our neighbor calls on my wife's cell phone and says, "Hey did you know that your Bichon is sitting by your front door?" Sure enough, there she was. When my wife closed the door to the house, our Bichon decided to exit the garage and go around to the front door to get in, and just sat there patiently waiting for us to open the door.

I have left my estate to the San Diego Humane Society and The Morris Animal Shelter in Phila. They gave me the best foster animals and my 2 babies babies since 1986.

I hope the SCOTUS doesn't take away my healthcare so that I have something to leave to the most wonderful beings on the planet. The poor animals who suffer due to human greed deserve all we can do. Of course Climate Change will kill us all sooner or later but the animals don't deserve to suffer, however people do.


People suck and they always will...greed is a human specialty.
