This Cat Always Sat By The Window. But When I Read The Note Beside Him? I Cried.

If you’ve ever watched the show ‘Hoarders’, you know that people can get themselves so attached to stuff that their house gets filled to the brim with, well, garbage. This isn’t just gross, it’s a terrible health hazard.

Not only have the owners of these filth-filled homes been hurt just because of the overwhelming mess, but they usually have a menagerie of animals who live with them. We know that hoarding is an illness, but it’s always difficult to feel empathy when you see the lasting health problems that the individuals – and their pets – have to endure.

Especially when animals are involved, a certain amount of cleaning up is absolutely essential, people! In these homes, litter doesn’t get changed, urine doesn’t get wiped up, and rotting food never gets thrown out. Not only does it smell terrible, but the mold, particles, and bug infestations can cause huge health issues that sometimes can’t be reversed, especially for the elderly.

This beautiful kitty named Forrest is a living example of how bad it can be.

He’s 20 years old, an advanced age for felines no matter what, but he – along with his brother – had been rescued by Buddy Dog Humane Society in Sudbury, MA. They had rescued him from a hoarders home, and though they were placed in foster care, his brother passed and he was put back in a shelter… because he needs to be monitored at all times.

This poor kitty is suffering from kidney failure because of the situation he had been living in.

Luckily, the people who are caring for him don’t just monitor his health, they make sure he stays comfortable and gets all the love he needs.

He has a nice sunny set up in a window seat, and the volunteers at the shelter have made him his own sign that reads. “My name is Forrest. I am about 20 yrs old and in kidney failure. I am enjoy my life sitting in the sunlight. You can pet me. I appreciate the attention. – Love Forrest.”

Thankfully, this kitty is in a much healthier environment and is loving all the petting and attention. Seriously, if you find yourself letting clutter pile up, do your cats – or other animals – a favor and start picking up!

Tesco: Ditch palm oil in your own-brand products!

>>>SIGN PETITION HERE<<< My name is Oscar, I’m 15 and I want to do everything I can to protect our environment . I was really upset and angry when I found out about the huge deforestation that is involved in the palm oil industry, and that’s why I’m calling on Tesco to ditch palm oil from their own-brand products. Iceland has already banned palm oil from their own brand products, so we know that this is possible for Tesco too. As the largest supermarket in the UK (and using over 40,000 tonnes of palm oil every year!), Tesco has an opportunity to set an example to other supermarkets and food producers that destroying swathes of forests for palm oil is not acceptable. I run a online cause called ‘Justice4Earth’ ( @justice4earth on Instagram and @justice4earth on Twitter) where I raise awareness about environmental issues. I found out that palm oil is literally everywhere: from shampoos, toothpastes and detergents to sandwiches, chocolate, biscuits a

SIGN NOW! BAN THE SALE OF CRUEL ‘LIVE ANIMAL’ KEYCHAINS

>>> Sign the petition now to tell China to ban live animal keychains! <<< Turtles, fish and lizards are being stuffed and sealed into plastic bags and sold on the streets as keychains in China. The cost of these animals lives? About $1.50. Swimming in a small pool of colored water, the animals only last until the oxygen is used up. Then, they can theoretically be released and kept as pets – although it’s doubtful that the same people who think an animal makes a nifty trinket have the slightest clue about how to properly care for them. In an interview with CNN, David Neale, animal welfare director of Animals Asia said, “Lack of food and diminishing oxygen concentrations within both the water and the small amount of air in these plastic pouches will cause the animals to die in a relatively short period of time after the pouches are sealed.” 😠So Cruel😠 ACTUAL REAL LIVE ANIMALS are being sealed into tiny plastic pouches and sold as f**king keycha

Does The Public Fear Pit Bulls? My Heart Was Torn To Pieces At 1:56.

It’s not uncommon to read or watch content that describes Pit Bull dogs as vicious, aggressive, or dangerous. But the truth is far from that. In reality, a temperament study found that Pit Bulls scored second highest in terms of tolerance. So where does all the unfair bias come from? In an effort to combat these ideas, this YouTuber conducted a social experiment where he walked through the same neighborhood twice – once with a Pit Bull and the other with an Australian Shepherd. The frightened and sometimes painfully, downright ignorant responses to the Pit Bull only proves the upsetting stereotyping against these loving dogs! Take a look at this video It’s important to remember that there are no bad dogs, only bad people. Each individual pup is different and most have nothing but love to give!
