Animals are wonderful creatures. They are loyal and are there for us even on our bad days. However, many time we find that way to many times, people cannot take care of them for different reasons or the animals are abused and neglected.
No matter how much we love them, having to many is unhealthy as well. Not only for the person who owns them but the the animal(s) as well for they have certain needs just like humans do.
Just like when a human is abused or neglected it make an animal harder to trust again. It can be done, but not always. It takes time and time with an animal takes money and commitment.
Other animals such as military and police dogs come to an age where they retire, but like humans. However they require special care from their adopted humans.
There are things you can do to help this wonderful cause of rebuilding that trust and human bond. Here are just a few things.
- Adopt A Pet
- Donate Money To A Program that Specializes in Rescue Animals
- Volunteer Time to Work With the Animals.
Most people people think that in order to help they have to donate money to an organization, and though money does go a long way towards their care and rehabilitation, a lot of organizations also see volunteers who will be loyal and are willing to work. By volunteering it means the animals get that human contact and help. What this does is it allows organizations to budget more for feed and medication instead of employees for a recovering animal requires 24 hour care in a lot of cases.
