My euthanasia activities have earned me hate mail. According to *someone*@hotmail.com I should have tried to save the pigeon.
I like GreenPeace and animal rights activists and the work they do. But sometimes their members' "save the animal at all costs" mentality disregards the welfare and quality of life of the animal. Saving a wild animal so injured that it may never be released and must live in a small cage isn't saving the animal at all.

Okay, I'm just disagreeing to be ornery. No real reason, just to disagree. In fact, if I weren't disagreeing just becaues, I'd agree wholeheartedly with the decision. People that put their pets through chemo and other such things disgust me. The dog can't understand that it MAY get better. All the owner is doing is inflicting large amounts of pain and suffering. Chronic pain fucking sucks. It's horrible to watch the pet you love suffer, just to make yourself feel better.
Oh, and just in case anyone who's reading this is one of those freaks. Yeah. I've had pets put down.
