Case of animal abuse reveals troubled person

The article, “Puppy thrown out 2nd-story window; woman charged” (Jan. 26) was disturbing. It is sad on both sides of the story: for the woman and this puppy.

As a former employee of the SPCA of the Triad (a local animal-rescue group), I am all too aware of the abuse that happens here in Greensboro. It’s sad that people abuse and neglect the very thing that will love them unconditionally.

It makes me wonder what is going on in this woman’s life and the choices she made that led her to that moment. I hope she finds the support she needs to get her through these hard times.

Our current economic state makes life hard for everyone, but we must not forget about the ones who do not have a voice in this matter. We must all become advocates for our furry friends.

You're gonna want to read the 'Sea Kitten Stories.' Number 3 is my favorite by far.

The absurdity of the lengths some will go to in order to create a "cause". Fishing hurts, indeed. But look on the bright side, rahrah. At least we now know we can create a sea kitten to share with our friends.
