"The rescue league charges owners $25 to surrender their cat or dog, and more for litters of kittens or puppies"
You know, I rant and rage on here about TRILLIONS for WAR and BANKS, but right now I'm CRYING MAD!!!!!!!!!!!! God damn it!!!! This fucking country has NOTHING, NO RESPECT, NO MONEY, NOTHING for ANYTHING that has to do with LIFE!!!! Even their rotten shit "health care" is a CASH COW for PHARMACEUTICAL CORPORATIONS that have a license to POISON US!!
I don't know why I'm angry: they don't take care of us, why would I expect them to take care of the animals!!!!
"Pets, too, losing homes to recession; Owners surrender or abandon animals" by Irene Sege, Globe Staff | December 16, 2008

After six years of living together in a Dorchester apartment, they were surrendered to the Animal Rescue League of Boston last month after the woman who owned them lost her home to foreclosure. Now they share a chain-link kennel at the league's South End shelter.
In animal shelters around the area, the story is the same. With the worsening economy comes an increase in animals abandoned or surrendered by owners no longer able to care for them....

The rescue league charges owners $25 to surrender their cat or dog, and more for litters of kittens or puppies.
