lack of sensitivity training......

ok, so some of the media have no clue....especially when it comes to pets....the following is a discourse between marc fisher from the washington post during an on-line chat....

Crofton, Md.: Hi Marc -- Question about human behavior (mine). I am horrified at the destruction along the Gulf Coast. I see bodies in the water and felt terrible but sadly not half as bad as I feel when I see a dog, cat, etc., dead or in distress from the storm! Am I hopeless? I can look at CNN and watch coverage of body removal but I immediately turn the channel when it is an animal! Why?

Marc Fisher: Beats me. But then again, I cannot fathom why all these folks who stayed behind to take care of their pets would risk their lives for an animal that they could easily replace at any pet store.


easily replace.........this guy has no pets.......or no heart......or neither of the above........we in the see-dub clan have gone so far as to do hip replacement for our late viszla named redbone....the surgury gave him an extra couple of years.....and it seemed as worthwhile at the time as it does now.......would i stay behind if i couldn't find the cat in a crisis.....you bet i would.....she would expect me to do my duty as her human.............and i couldn't live with myself if it failed her........
