Rescue Journal

i am a little bit frustrated right now.

why are other people's mistakes my problems to fix? elderly people getting pets that they will assuredly NOT outlive with families that have no intention of caring for their pet when they die. people moving into strata's that clearly state rules for pets but someone said it was ok when it was clearly not and now the animal has to go quick. people who rescue some animal and then bit off more than they can chew and now guess who needs in here today for gawds sake, it is enough to make me puke.

i want to ask if there was any money from the estate and how much the family enjoyed spending it while sending fluffy, muffy or sue off to some overburdened rescue or somewhere that was destined to fail?

i want to ask, which part of "ONE INDOOR PET, UNDER 13 INCHES TALL" did you fail to understand when you signed that agreement to buy?

i want to ask, what did you think that rescue was, just grabbing and stashing some animal over night? wow, that is amazingly quick and easy rescue.

how many "oops" are heading for my gates? enough that I should just call this People's Old Animal Oops Rescue.

you wanna know something? when i make an oops, i don't go looking for someone else to fix it for me. BIG oops phoebe, BIG oops clyde, BIG oops mrs. p, francis, carly, jesse, ben and mr. potato ed, all BIG oops, all of them relied on me to figure it out.....i am responsible for the animals in my care and someone else is SUPPOSED to be responsible for their old and helpless animals while making oops of their own and putting those animals at risk.

some of those guys are going to come to bad endings because of someone's not all that great decisions, i see it and i taste it, it makes me feel ill. i cannot take them all.
