Its not so bad actually. There are times when I really miss my pets, but I do just fine going outside and watching wild animals from a distance. There are reasons that I don't have pets ; the money aspect is a big one, and so is the energy needed to do it. I would need help.

I think that having a family or community to fall back on for their care is important.

This. I really miss my cat and due to finances I'm forced to be alone. The saying "you will own nothing and be happy" rings true.

That's really got to be one of the saddest things among many sad things about not having money in this world, I'd cry so much if I had to get rid of my cats for financial reasons, I'm sorry
