Pet overpopulation isn't the end of the world unless you're a puppy or a kitten.
We have fostered/adopted hundreds of pets here are a few stories.
I am getting sooo comfortable in my new home..... My (new) mother made me an egg for Sunday breakfast and added it in my kibble... yummy. She also bought me a sweater (sigh), because she thinks I might catch a chill during my first New England winter. Right now, I am relaxing in front of the fireplace. Life is good. Marlo p.s. My new parents are thinking about changing my name to Maxwell - after the famous equation - whatever that means. xxx, ooo
