A few days ago I read in EL PERIÓDICO the letter “They incite us to buy and we fall into temptation”, which talked about the impulsiveness at the time of purchase Because of the offers, the temptations in the prices and the strategies of marketing, and that you finally realized that many things that you had acquired not even you needed.
This made me think of people who do the same thing but with living beings, be it dogs, cats, turtles or rabbits. I am a great lover of animals; I have two adopted cats of the protector of my population and it would never occur to me to abandon them. In the last month, precisely the refuge of animals where I live have published photos of three rabbits of long, drooping ears that were abandoned on the street, some even still with the cage.
I once spoke to a vet and he told me that there are many fathers who buy animals for their children for a whim, as if it were a toy of which they tire some time later. I hope with the new animal welfare law animals displayed in stores are no longer bought as if they were fluff. There is a phrase that I always keep in mind when I read about animals abandoned by their owners: “If the animals spoke, the humanity would cry “.
