Ours is in big trouble

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” ~Mohandas Gandhi

I just saw on the news that a family pet had been found with an arrow through its neck. People are sick. Luckily a good and kind person got the animal to a vet and they did surgery and he is recovering well. He is up for adoption. I would surely love to adopt him, since he has been through so much and yet is so so sweet and trusting. That made it clear to me that he had belonged to someone. I have no space for another animal in my home, as I already have 2 furry kids. Why didn't this precious pet have on a collar with identification? Why did he wander around for a week while infection was raging in the wound inflicted upon him? Thank God someone found him and helped him.

I am really worried about and saddened by a society that thinks nothing of harming innocent beings.
