What's Going On!

In the past couple of days the Suncoast Animal League has rescued animals from some precarious situations. First, 6, eight - week old lab/ border collie puppies were found in boxes about 25 feet from the extremely busy Gunn Highway. These puppies could have easily climbed out of the boxes and made their way to the road. Fortunately, Ehrlich Animal Hospital was right there and brought the puppies to safety. Besides the obvious road danger, there was the heat factor. Those pups could have cooked in those cardboard boxes. However, the people did take the time to write the puppies names on the boxes and the word "help" several times. They also wrote that they had been evicted. You can see the pictures by going to suncoastanimalleague.org and clicking on Facebook. The puppies were covered with fleas and loaded with worms. The are doing well now. They have been vaccinated, de-fleaed, de-wormed and spayed and neutered. They are officially up for adoption.

Yesterday, a tiny 2-3 week old kitten was found in a recycling bin. This wasn't by accident because a can of cat food was opened and placed with the little kitty. The little medium haired, black kitten is currently in a foster home sucking down the kitten formula and doing quite well.

What's with these people? The act like they are saving these animals, yet, they put them in more danger.

Talk to me people!
