题目: An average on home less animals
Not sure how acurate this is now because this stat is from about 10 years ago so I'm sure the numbers are now higher...but 10 years ago to give every cat in the US a home...each person (not family...each PERSON) would have to take in 21 cats and 7 dogs....that would mean a family of 4 would have to take in 84 cats and 28 dogs.Breeding can be done if it is done RESPONSIBLY...letting your animals slip out and opps,your pregnant is not a way to go about it.If all the unwanted pregnancies alone were avoided,imagine how many less unwanted there would be.I think a big problem is also when the "newness" of the pup or kitten wear off of most people and the animals get into their "terrible 2's" they just give up and get rid of the animal.

anastasia: Not sure if you have it over there, but here, if you have a cat or dog, and you dont want them to have kittens or puppies they offer free neutering and spade service, which i think is an excellent idea.

WatfordFC: The best you can probably find in this country is a lower-cost vet who may help out of charity, that and a lot of cities offer cheaper vet services...For ALL animals sake I wish people here would volunteer their time at a "real" animal shelter, it has changed me for life, I will never, ever "buy" a pet again, not with so many thousands sitting there waiting to be exterminated, a mutt, a stray, or an older animal has just as much love (if not more) to give...but sadly, in America, we always seem to want what we perceive as the "best" for ourselves instead of looking at the bigger picture

Jules: Then why do I have to keep telling my friend's five-month-old male puppy to stop trying to hump my 8 y/o (guessing here, she's from a shelter) fixed female before she snaps one day EVERY time I doggie-sit him?

srnity: At least I hope that's dog trying to hump dog. Few years back our eldest cat was willing to be humped by a dog, just the dog couldn't get that low

heavenlyemma: OMG - absolutely priceless - was it because the dog thought he was a cat OR the cat thought she was a dog? You could've won "Stupid Pet Tricks" hands-down with that one

WatfordFC: I truely do not know of any that will just do it for free,which is a shame.My nieghbor just made the comment that she wanted to take a stray female in to get fixed but just can't afford it.So,because a vet will not donate their time,she will probably keep reproducing.
I must say that we bougth Damien..I had hubby talked into buying him and then going to a shelter to get a second dog but the kennel owner talked him out of it (AUGH!!!!) We DID make sure to get him though from a reputable breeder..I did a crap load of research in general but also on him,and the kennel.Their are so many animals that need help,still wish we would get a pound puppy.

anastasia: 2 years ago i opened my front door and found my ickle mtisy-moo in a box, just left on my dorr step, to be honest i was reluctant at first, having 2 boys already i wasnt too sure how they would react, but Jessica (my daughter) slowly introduced her to them and they were fine. Mitsy was riddled with fleas and was quite poorly, took her to the vets, and a quick drenching of flea sparay, and anti-biotic injection and she is wonderful. I am so glad i kept her and not taken her to the Cats Protection League.
