Thank you for caring.  You are the salt of the very earth.  We do our bit but I won't write details.

I ask those who are lucky to experience compassion to please try to remember, even among the abundance of human misery, that animals have souls too.

We just took in a pair of kittens.  We now have five cats.  But they were going to be drowned.  And the adult white&tabby next to me right now would have died, as his three siblings certainly did, had I not brought him home.  Funny, he's so affectionate while the beautiful western purebred is the aloof one.

They were lucky they were not up here, they would have been fattened up and sold to be food for a restaurant .

I thought that was illegal now because there is so much loss of rice crops to rodents

I don't think so, ( yet ), I see the dog buyers quite often with a cat amongst the dogs, in the cage on the back of their M/c.
  Plenty of snakes up here to keep the rodent population down, the dogs up here would probably eat them too, given 1/2 a chance.
