Pets bring responsibility
I agree with the article in the newspaper, "Shelter garners praise for spay-neuter rules" (March 16). Animals are precious and do not need to be treated badly or abandoned.
Animals keep us company when we feel depressed. It's shocking to see a nice dog or cat abandoned in the street. People who cannot take care of a pet and its offspring should not buy one. If they do want a pet, then they can do the right thing by spaying or neutering it. This helps to reduce the number of strays. I applaud Animal Control for picking up stray animals on the street.
Responsibility begins with each of us. If we are pet owners, this is our problem, not someone else's. If people choose to be pet owners, they should take responsibility for and be caretakers of their pets.

Same thing applies to people.
If people choose to be parents, they should take responsibility for and be caretakers of their children.
