Bingo: Happy to Be Alive

Bingo, the sweet orange tabby cat does a little dance. He “sits up” like a dog and slaps the air. This kitty almost didn’t have much to dance about. He and his mom and siblings were at a county pound. Thankfully they were rescued, but many other cats at the shelter don’t get as lucky.

On YouTube, there are video commentators that say that this particular shelter, Heard County Animal Control in Franklin, GA, is not such a bad place. It is true that the tiny two person staff, Kaylene and Angela, DOES care, but the situation is always very dire for cats. Just like any other county pound, when the shelter is bursting at the seems with cats with no takers and the cats have passed the time of their stray hold, euthanization occurs. Please don’t take any shelter that you “think” doesn’t have the same problem for granted. Spay your pets to avoid unwanted litters. Adopt dogs, pups, cats and kittens from a shelter or rescue group instead of purchasing one. Some of the best and some with the most personality are waiting for a chance. Of course, do not do so if you don’t have time for or the means to take care of a pet.
