Sad Pals: Animals have rights to

'Speak for those who don't have a voice.'

If I could protect and look after every animal that's in need in this world, I would. There is an astonishing amount of mistreated pets, so many animals are abused and neglected it's impossible to help them all when so many people don't seem to care.

Last month i visited Sad Pals someone I know is moving house and unfortunately the place they were moving to wouldn't allow animals to live on the premises. So reluctantly they had to give their cat up. Sad pals is owned by an elderly lady, who told us stories about how some of the cats happened to end up in Sad pals, the stories moved me to tears. I was so shocked. There were so many cats there that had been rescued from appalling conditions. One of the cats named Winky, came over to me for a fuss, 'she's named Winky because she only has one eye', said the elderly lady and she went on to tell me that when she was a kitten a young child pocked her in the eye with a stick.Winky wasn't the only cat that had lost an eye, some of them had lost their ears and had, had their tails cut off. There were even kittens and pregnant cats that had been found thrown in a bag and left to die but had survived thanks to Sad Pals.

For a twelve year old cat, my cat Daisy is one of the most loved, content and healthy adult cats I've seen in a while. My whole family care for her well-being as she is part of our family. Its not hard to care for an animal but it does take commitment. Every animal needs a home but not every animal gets a good home and it's heartbreaking.

I'm one person, just a teenager and a fashion student from the West Midlands, like many girls when ever i get paid I cant wait to go shopping, I love following and talking about fashion, but every now and then I stumble across a really sad story, that moves me to tears. I need to think about the important things in this world. Fashion speaks for itself, people are aware of fashion. Do I always need to blog about it and help promote a thriving business, that's becoming somewhat of a way of life. I will never understand why people abuse Animals? Why can't we put and end to it? Why is there no end to evil? Accidents happen but those people that have the intention to hurt a helpless animal sicken me, it's disturbing. I should not need to remind you that life is precious and we do not have the right to play god.
