PS. I was just referring to the domestic pets, I guess I was thinking of Cadbury and Sable and Cooper. I couldn’t imagine leaving them behind and feeling okay about that. All the big animals, feral animals, wild animals, poor things - there’s little options there. I don’t even know how you would leave food or water or shelter for them, given whatever the emergency is. It does sound like some farm animals are pretty smart and can figure out how to survive.
So, as I was sitting here knitting, I thought about a hypothetical situation and wondered what was the right thing to do.
If someone is in the position to save either a wonderful, loyal pet, or a rather vile and unkind human being, what do we do? I’m thinking that the human must be saved before the pet, as difficult as that may seem.
Thoughts?
