People who abandon their ancient ass pets at a shelter always ask for pity for themselves, and reassurance that they shouldn’t feel guilty. Because they do feel guilty. But like they should feel guilty yk

Yeah 99% of the time I don’t think there’s any excuse. Unless you’re being placed in the hospital/a nursing home for an extended period or are physically unable to care for the pets, you can almost always find a way to work around it. I know because I’ve always done it. It makes a little harder with housing but it’s either that or give up someone I consider family so it’s not even a question

like you lived with this animal it’s whole life and now that it’s on its deathbed you abandon it? i think we should ostracize these people. not only does the animal not understand what’s happening, but it’s living out its most painful and tiresome days cooped up in a cage with very little chance of being adopted since most people don’t want to adopt an animal that’s about to die

Same thing with meat eating people who don’t like looking at chicken trucks or thinking about where their meat comes from. If you feel guilty maybe pay attention
