first of all, I wouldn't say i'm an animal lover but i do
not condone and respect those who treat animals with cruelty.
second, my question, i happen to chance upon the pages of the
sunday times lifestyle (26 march 06) and i saw the pictures of the
reader's pets. That got me thinking of a question that i would like
to post to you guys.
If you like animals, Why do you have to pay to buy them?? You would
have just taken care of strays... it's not like there aren't enough
strays to go around. Plus, doing that would have eased the "burden"
on the SPCA. So answer me, give me what you got. Cuz, i'm sick of
hearing "oh i love animals! So-and-so is cruel to them..." (For
crying out loud!)
On a separate issue, i heard my friend comment on a bad exprience
with the SPCA. He said that once there was an accident on the roads
and a motionless cat was lying on the ground (probably the casualty
of the accident). his sister saw the cat and called the SPCA, all
the personal at the SPCA said was "kick the cat to check if it's
alive..."
Talk about Prevention of Cruelty to Animals!!

*EDIT: Mis-spelled sister* [/quote
wad else can you do? if u gonna touch it, den there might be
infectious diseases. and using a foreign item might injure the
animal, and im sure they dun meant kick it hard.
