yeah, you couldn't pry my dogs away from my cold lifeless body... I would never give them up for a guy! I still can never understand the moving excuse... how is it an excuse?
The ONLY reason I can imagine is if a family falls on hard times and has NO other choice but to move somewhere that does not allow animals. But would hope they would exhaust every other option first, especially if they had senior-aged animals!
But I'm with ya'll. Couldn't pry my animals away and suspect the "moving" excuse most times is exacly that ... an excuse but not a sound reason. Nobody's gonna tell me "but you don't understand" ...uhhh, yep I do! First met my guy on a vacation across the country, he couldn't move because he has a custodial son who is on every-other-weekend visitation with my guy's ex.
Wasn't sure I even wanted to move that far ... and both of us were package deals. He had a custodial child, a wolfdog, and two cats; I had a Golden Retriever and a few cats that I refused to ship by air. So he got a pet-sitter for his furkids, then drove across the country and drove me and my animals across again. My car was shipped instead of my pets and we stayed at pet-friendly places along the way. We all had a lot of fun on that trip. But it's why I
really take the "moving" excuse with a whole big bag of salt!
Zoom, sure hope you can find a rescue for those two! If there's no senior rescue in your state ... is there one in a neighboring state that might willing to take them?
