    I bypass the system entirely when it comes to acquiring new pets:

    All of mine just show up on the back porch. Anyone who says that feral cats cannot be domesticated isn't patient enough. The biggest attention whoremost loyal cat we have is a 20lb feral tom.

    That being said, we'll donate to the local, small-scale rescues - much as in the manner we eschew United Way donations and directly contribute to those we know who are in need of help.

    Feral cats... In the old days we called them "alley cats".

    There's 90 lbs. of Rotty attached to that huge head.

    Not to mention a shit-ton of Band-Aids®.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    I hate PETA. I would like to see them destroyed as an organization. They totally suck.
