Pets displaced by Joplin tornado find new homes
I was pleased the ASPCA was working hard to rehome the pets displaced by the Joplin tornado. They had an adoptathon planned and succeed in finding over 700 animals new homes.
This kind of made me sad, too! How many of those animals lost their families and now must adjust to a new one and on a second thought, how many of them would still be waiting in a kennel for a new home if the tornado had not hit Joplin. The reason I point this out is people come out of the woodwork whenever there is a tragedy of this kind. The problem is although their hearts are in the right place, they act emotionally and then end up returning the animal several weeks later. Just my observation, nothing concrete. Check out the story here.
