I regularly donate cat and dog food to one of our local shelters here and,one time, they asked me if I wanted to come back and see the cats and dogs. I told them "No" because I know, from past experience, that I get all choked up and start getting "misty" because there are just so many of them and I can't take every single one and give them a loving home. Heck, I can't even go by the cages at the PetSmart for the same reason.
I have to leave the room or change the channel when the SPCA advertisement comes on that has the song by Sarah Mclachlan "In the Arms of an Angel".
Unfortunately I do and I leave the store totally depressed........
My wish has always been to win the Power Ball lottery and then purchase a mega piece of property and staff it with personnel dedicated to the welfare of homeless animals............
