It realy makes you wonder. Our local pound puts on a show on our local access tv channel of all the cats and dogs up for adoption and so many of them are spayed and neutered already so you know they were once loved.
Sometimes the poor things end up in shelters because their owners are older folks that are forced to go into assisted living or a nursing home. I wish those places could take pets. It’s heartbreaking for the owner and the pet. 🙁
