To the rescue: cats and dogs

Carol Hawn-Miller and Cindy Liggett are local animal advocates who work to save the lives of homeless cats and dogs. In 2001 they founded Kitty and K-9 Connection, a non-profit rescue/foster/adoption program. In this blog, they will discuss the issues around the numerous homeless cats and dogs in Anchorage, and the process of placement, including animal and human behaviors that lead to success or failure. They are pictured here with Gladys on Carol's knee, Cherri in the middle, and Ambrosia the cat on Cindy's lap.

I thought I'd heard it all...

...most of the excuses anyway, but I came across a new one which is the most absurd excuse I've ever come across. Even stupider then the woman who dumped her cat at animal control because 'she is too talkative, very noisy, I need quiet".

Carol took a 7 year old female poodle named PepperAnn who was owner released because 'IT AFFECTED MY SEX LIFE'. I mean, is that the most idiotic reason to dump your pet? What did the dog do? Stand at the edge of the bed and watch? Give me a break. Do you not know what a door is? And if you dumped your pet for some person who didn't like your dog (who by the way...you had for 7 years), shame on you.
