Come In

Come in, but remember when you enter my home; keep an open mind and an open heart.

My house is filled with love and compassion in the form of rescued animals.

My house is filled with fur from the animals I am lucky enough to rescue.   My house is filled with the scent of them as well.

 

If their aroma offends your senses, please know that offends my sensibility.

 For, simply because they are handicapped or not perfect, does that make them any less deserving of love, warmth, comfort and food?

Should I shun them as society has done, because they sneeze, spray, poop or scratch furniture?

Should I have left them on the euthanasia table because they would one day ruin my furniture, a meaningless object that can easily be replaced?

Yes, I allow them to walk on my counters, sleep on my bed and eat from my dish.

 Do you think my house is dirty?  Do you think I don’t clean because you smell animals?  Do you think less of me because of this?

Too bad, this is MY house, and I am honored to share it with these magnificent creatures your world has discarded.  I am honored to be here to wipe their noses, mop their pee and hold their dying bodies.

 Don’t dare judge me or my way of life, judge yourself, or are you too afraid?

For I have taken that leap way over my comfort threshold to save the ones who were thrown away.

My wallet is always empty.  My clothes covered with fur.

My heart may break when a little one dies but my life is filled with so much love and contentment.  I want personally for nothing.

Pound seizure is the practice of seizing dogs and cats from shelters and pounds to supply the biomedical research industry. Some pounds and shelters must sell (or choose to sell) to Class B dealers or research facilities. When dogs and cats are obtained for research, their fate is terminal. Some animals die quickly, while others are used in long-term, agonizing studies. Many dogs are taken from pounds and sold for research.


Pound Seizure is Not Necessary
