Homeless people struggle to keep pets

[Catherine]

Having pets is so much a part of people's lives that they will hang on to them even if the become homeless. Sometimes people end up homeless because of their pets. Either way, the pets are the thing that gives their lives meaning and keeps then going.

We need to rethink how we help homeless and at risk people so that they are not forced with refusing much needed help if they are going to keep their pets.

One thing that is clear, homeless people give their pets the best of care, according to their means. Their pets give them the only real affection they have in their lives and they give them incentive to their best.

I am glad their are vets who are willing to help.
Now I wish someone would step forward and offer this couple a place to live. They don't need a palace, they just need a warm place where they can live safely with their beloved dogs.
