She ought to consider eating her pets.
Oh for cryin’ out loud! What will they think of next?
If it weren’t such a load of crap, it’d be hilarious.
She is on food stamps.
Ok, so the public is paying for her food and she has two cats and a dog to support.
I have a problem with this.
I know this is snarcy but she is a chunky woman who could afford to eat better and lose a few pounds.
The tax payers should not be supporting her AND her animals.
Some woman is on the dole and she has THREE PETS and now I am suppose to feel sorry for her because she has trouble feeding them. Sorry but no sympathy here. How about a food stamp program for pets for people such as this woman!!!
My kids are clamoring for a dog. Besides the fact I would get stuck walking it I ran the calculations and concluded the cost of feeding it, trips to the vet, etc it would not be worth it.
I wonder what my dogs are worth per lb?
>>”People look at me, they are, like, you know: ‘The cat is 16 or 17, come on, get over with it,”’ Kazijian said, sitting in her bed and stroking a cat. “And I say, ‘To me that’s almost like a child.’ ... You’ve got to be a pet owner to appreciate how much they give back to you.” <<
I had a cat that was my bestest friend for 19 years. Now we have Minnie the Maniac Papillon and our newest addition, Baron the Computer kitty sleeping with his chin on the screen as I type.
But geez, what an insult to this lady’s children to compare her pets to them.
OH THE HUMANITY!!!
4 cans of 9 lives for a buck is just too much!!
USA Today ran a piece about an elderly couple that had committed suicide because they lost their house. It turns out they had mortgaged it to the hilt beginning in 1988 when one of them inherited it, and then when the lifestyle resulted in potential loss of the property, they attempted to file bankruptcy three times in four years! They needed psychiatric help, not some news-whore blaming the economy for their woes!
This is the same crap. In my city, we have a non-profit, inner-city spay-neuter clinic that receives humongous donations of pet foods from the big makers to allow their distribution to needy owners at no charge.
Sheesh.
A can of Fancy Feast is $0.47.
Trader Joe’s Tuna for Cats is $0.33.
If you can’t scrape up $5 a week to feed your cat, maybe getting pets weren’t the best decision you’ve ever made.
She can always give up the pets she can’t afford and have some babies she can’t afford and get the government to pick up the tab.
BUT... I have three young, healthy cats. If one of them was 16 years old and on medication to keep it alive, and I couldn't afford it, I'd have it put to sleep. They are my angels, and they are my responsibility, but they are not humans. One has to prioritize.

I don’t know, I think it’s stupid for somebody on welfare to get pets, but I feel bad for someone who got a pet when they had a job and could afford it and then got laid off and can’t afford to take care of it anymore. The lady in the picture was disabled in an accident and her cats are 15 years old. I guess she probably got them a long time before her accident when she was still employed.
I don’t feel like paying for her cat food but I don’t feel like laughing at her either. Anyone could find themselves in hard times. Giving up a family pet because you lost your job really would be sad.
