In my town, alone, 1,000 or more unwanted pets are killed every day
at the animal shelter, and who knows how many more are just dumped
because they became pregnant or outgrew their cuteness.
PLEASE SPAY AND NEUTER!!! IT SAVES LIVES!!!
Read this and weep....
She told them that a big orange Tom took "Kitty" as his wife "It's wonderful, a gift from God, the miracle of life"
At half a year young "Kitty" feels too painful and too scared to appreciate six miracles, blind-eyed and yellow haired.
But she knows these lives depend on her and nature tells her how and as she cleans them, children ask "Mom, can we go now?"
But now and then, for six more weeks the children visit her to play with six new magic toys, made of life and fur.
The six weeks pass, the newness gone and new homes yet unfound, Mom bundles up six miracles and takes them to the pound,
Where lovingly, with gentle hands and no tears left to cry, the shelter workers kiss them once and take them off to die.
And "Momma Kitty", now she's called, mourns her loss and then, she's put outside, and of course, she's pregnant once again.
Dad tells "Kitty" STOP THIS NOW or you wont live here long!, but deep inside of Momma Cat, this time something's wrong.
Too young, too small, too often bred now nature's gone awry, Momma Kitty feels it too and she crawls off to die.
She too is freed from this cruel world, and from her time of strife. How harsh the truth, how high the price, this "Miracle of Life"?
The Vet told me that she had been pregnant, and it cost me $80.00, but it was cheaper than having to suffer the heartache of that poor cat having more and more litters that were tormented (small children were involved), abandoned or taken to the pound. They kept one male from her and now he and the mama cat live together, outside, (of course!), but at least there will be no more kitties.
The ones I got from that mama kitty are spoiled house cats and very happy!
