In a lot of cases, that doesn't seem to be the most wise way to acquire a pet. I am also pleased to see the low number of pet-store pets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965336832188998669.post-16041763483197318092011-11-16T17:48:58.039-05:002011-11-16T17:48:58.039-05:00I am not surprised, people with pets are usually p...I am not surprised, people with pets are usually people with soft hearts - and soft hearts are attracted to strays and rescues!!KrittersThatTwitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846293390429402875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965336832188998669.post-41621400841864427882011-11-16T16:53:15.384-05:002011-11-16T16:53:15.384-05:00I'm pleased as well to see the low number of a...I'm pleased as well to see the low number of animals purchased through pet stores. It was an online poll, though, so perhaps "those types" of owners aren't typically online and voting proudly about where they got their dog or cat?<br /><br />Anyway. I do dearly wish for this to be a trend that continues! Puppy mills are just heartbreaking, and they are not self sufficient. They rely very heavily on pet store sales.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10562151546770315227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965336832188998669.post-49827208922285550272011-11-16T10:03:27.151-05:002011-11-16T10:03:27.151-05:00I was pleasantly surprised to see the low number o...I was pleasantly surprised to see the low number of animals purchased through pet stores.

We've had 4 cats; 1 from a rescue site in Fla many years ago, 2nd one was from friends of friends who had too many cats (was a lovely cat too), one from a newspaper ad that had been rescued and was in foster care awaiting adoption (another lovely cat). Now Mario, who comes from the Humane Society. We don't seem to have any ferals running around our neighborhood - ever, which is good, but I'm not sure why.Mariodacathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600880780597061337noreply@blogger.com
