I think that animals should rome free and that they should stop killing them. Animals are the most impotant thing there is.

That’s so sad! You really broke my heart with that story!
You shouldn’t feel bad, you did your best…it’s not your fault they died.

I just wish people had more respect to life.
I don’t know why we’re so selfish and assume we are the most important thing on this planet…we always come first! Everything else is after us.

We forget that we are a part of this world, and not the center of it.

A couple of weeks ago, I found 3 new born kittens in the middle of the street, they don’t even have their eyes open yet. I picked them up and put them next to their mother. Later on, when I came back home, I found one of them dead as a result of a car running over it. It was awful. I took the other 2, since the mother was absent. I couldn’t feed them fresh milk because they needed to be nursed, and I couldn’t provide them with that. I kept them warm during the night, as I was going to pay the pet shop to take care for them.

The next day, the neighbor’s driver claimed that they are his, and he wanted them back, I wish I didn’t. The day after that, I saw the other 2 on the ground dead, the same as the first one. I still can’t forgive myself for giving them back. I really wish I didn’t have acute (sounds cute, but with a deadly A at its front) allergies.

You are absolutely right, but like I said…we need to raise awareness for a start. The more we talk about it, the more people might understand what needs to be done.

Thank you for your comment Saud.

أعتقد أن التعامل مع المخلوقات بشكل عام يتطلب وعي ونضج انساني
الكثير من المطالبين بحقوق الحيوانات وخاصة في الشرق الأوسط
غالبا ما يقابلون بالاستهزاء وعدم أخذهم بجدية

وأنا في الحقيقة لست بقادر على إلقاء اللوم على أي طرف منهما
فكل منهما لدية حجة وجيه

لكن هذا لا يعني أن لكل منهما الحق في تبني الأفكار التي يريد
الموضوع ربما مبكر نوعا ما
لكن طرح مثل هذه الأفكار لايعني أننا انتهينا من مشكلة الانسان
وهذا لايعني أن نوقف كل شي لنحل مشكلة بمعيار الأهم ومن ثم المهم

فحن نقدر أن نعالجهما من خلال نشر الوعي

يعجبني أسلوب طرحك يارا

طرح بسيط ومباشر
يتجه نحو التركيز على الفكرة

Well, knowing you…I’m sure you would do a great job taking care of a pet. It might be hard in the beginning, but you’ll get the hang of it. You just need to have some confidence

But if you feel you are not up to it very strongly, then you’re doing the sensible thing here.

Are you saying I can’t stick my chihuahua in my pink Tote when I go to mall with my friends cause it;s like, so cute and stuff? Le Gasp!

THIS. is why I am so terrified of owning a pet. I’m worried that I might not be able to give it the time and care it needs and I would loathe myself if I thought of returning it back to wherever I got it from. Juggling a pet from one owner to another is really bad for the animal. You have to be ready to commit.
