Over the years I have had 6 kittens that had been dumped, I have 4 at the moment. years ago a poodle was dumped somewhere and made his way to my neighborhood and I had him for about 8-9 yr.s I will never understand why people dump animals, they don't always find good people to taked them in and take care of them.
All my cats have been neutered,declawed, and never outside.
I have a big dog that an old couple did not take good care of, we have given him a great life.
