Mission Statement

It is the mission of this Blog to educate, advise, and honestly report first hand information regarding Fake Animal Rescuers, and how they operate, and have operated in most, if not all of at least Southern California, since the mid 1950s, taking in and trapping both feral cats, strays, as well as people's pets, and killing all, or nearly all of them, while telling their defrauded trusting victims that they get homes for every animal they get.

This Blog will also publish many other topics concerning pet care, things to help in keeping your pets safer from toxic substances, as information about vaccinations, etcetera.

When we get reliable information regarding pet food problems, or other information which will be useful to you, that will also be published.

GIVING UP A PET

Have you ever given up an animal? Was it your own pet, or a stray which you were unable to place after being unsuccessful in your attempt to locate it's original owner?

Did it even occur to you to check out the person or Rescue group you released it to?

Have you ever before heard about Fake Pet Rescuers?

Not all Pet rescuers, even legitimate ones are No-Kill. Did you even know that? Face the facts. Most Pet Rescuers have only limited space to keep adoptable pets. Then, there is always a problem finding trustworthy and responsible people who can or will Foster an animal or two until they can be placed with caring, responsible people, who can also afford reasonable vet care for this pet.

Don't forget, We are looking for people who will give these animals love, and keep them for the remainder of their lives.

THINKING ABOUT GETTING A NEW PET

Why are you looking for a pet to begin with? Where do you begin to look for a pet? Have you taken the time to figure out what will happen to this animal when you are not at home? After all, you may have a full time job. What about when you take a vacation? Will you take your pet with you, or have someone you can really trust Petsit. Will you either have your pet cared for by a Doggy Day Care, or leave it at a Vet's office while you are away?

Do you have children? How old are you children, if you have any? Are your children old enough to understand how to treat a kitten or puppy, or even an adult pet? Don't forget about periodic vaccinations, whether for a cat or a dog.

Licenses and Micro Chips also cost money. Should you pet get lost, and end up being taken to a local Animal Shelter, there will be fees to pay prior to it being released into your custody, also.

Were you raised with pets? If so, where were they kept? Did they live in your home with the family, or outside chained or in a kennel? Maybe they were just allowed to run loose in the street, and get into your neighbor's trash.

So far, we have only scratched the surface when it come to things to consider prior to acquiring a cat, kitten, or a puppy or adult dog. This is a very long term decision, or should be. Don't take it lightly.

You see, there are many things to consider before even thinking about breeds, long hair or short.

Many breeds of cats as well as dogs are either in or out of fashion, depending on what breed a president may have, or some movie star's opinion of what kind or breed of dog is right for them.

A pet is much more than just what it looks like, as a puppy or after is matures into an adult, fully grown dog. You must also take into consideration what may happen when your beloved puppy grows older, and may get Arthritis, or hip displasia, and maybe needs surgery to repair genetic joint problems.

Different Breeds have different personality traits, and inbred instincts. For example, a Bloodhound is a dog that follows it's nose, so to speak. If a Bloodhound gets a scent, it can actually run itself to death.

Poodles were originally bred as hunting dogs, and they are not all just lap dogs, either. You must really learn a lot about different dog breeds before you decide what breed will fit your lifestyle, and living conditions.

Some cats and dogs live to be 15 to 20 years old, and some even older. Will you just have them destroyed because they have grown old? Or will you take the responsible course, and care for your pet though the hard times as well as the fun and good times?

After all, you are the only family they know. They were loyal to you, be you sick or not, beautiful or really ugly, they were there for you. They licked your face when you were sad, alone, or just in a bad mood. They stayed faithful to you. You should also remain faithful to them, as well.

When I was a child, and may have had a problem, I went to my dog, "Pal" who would lick my tears, and let me hug him until I felt better. Pal was mixed Cocker Spaniel and Terrier, and very smart. I still miss Pal, too. After all, I am now a Grandmother, and Pal has been gone for many years. But, I have not forgotten him.
