This is reality. I know a bunch of dog people who are overloaded with surrendered pets in their already too full homes.
That's a bit surprising - I thought these would have peaked after COVID then returned to normal
I wonder if the economy will actually crash in terms of aggregate GDP, or whether investor optimism will continue to sustain the aggregate numbers, benefitting the lucky few, while the average person continues to struggle.
Yeah I think this is where we are going sadly
What a joke I’m homeless and I still have my dog!
Unfortunately, you don't need a permit to keep a pet...
Usually parents buy it for the child (because they're hysterical about needing a pet), then they get tired of it in a short time (max 1 year) and the pet is taken to a shelter...
It's a strange world we live in...
