Sorry guys, I just haven’t been in the tumblr mood lately. It’s just a phase though one of these days I will be updating like this hiatus never happened.

That doesn’t mean I won’t blog things. I’m only talking about my anime screenshots. xD

BEFORE YOU DUMP THEM AT THE POUND READ THIS

“I think our society needs a huge “Wake-up” call.

As a shelter manager, I am going to share a little insight with you all…a view from the inside if you will.

First off, all of you people who have ever surrendered a pet to a shelter or humane society should be made to work in the “back” of an animal shelter for just one day. Maybe if you saw the life drain from a few sad, lost, confused eyes, you would stop flagging the ads on Craigslist and help these animals find homes. That puppy you just bought will most likely end up in my shelter when it’s not a cute little puppy anymore. Just so you know there’s a 90% chance that dog will never walk out of the shelter it’s dumped at? Purebred or not! About 25% of all of the dogs that are “owner surrenders” or “strays”, that come into a shelter are purebred dogs.

The most common excuses: “We are moving and we can’t take our dog (or cat).” Really? Where are you moving too that doesn’t allow pets? Or they say, “The dog got bigger than we thought it would”. How big did you think a German Shepherd would get? “We don’t have time for her”. Really? I work a 10-12 hour day and still have time for my 6 dogs! “She’s tearing up our yard”. How about making her a part of your family? They always tell me, “We just don’t want to have to stress about finding a place for her. We know she’ll get adopted, she’s a good dog”.

Odds are your pet won’t get adopted & how stressful do you think being in a shelter is? Well, let me tell you, your pet has 72 hours to find a new family from the moment you drop it off. Sometimes a little longer if the shelter isn’t full and your dog manages to stay completely healthy. If it sniffles, it dies. Your pet will be confined to a small run/kennel in a room with other barking or crying animals. It will have to relieve itself where it eats and sleeps. It will be depressed and it will cry constantly for the family that abandoned it. If your pet is lucky, I will have enough volunteers in that day to take him/her for a walk. If I don’t, your pet won’t get any attention besides having a bowl of food slid under the kennel door and the waste sprayed out of its pen with a high-powered hose.

If your dog is big, black or any of the “Bully” breeds (pit bull, rottie, mastiff, etc) it was pretty much dead when you walked it through the front door. Those dogs just don’t get adopted. It doesn’t matter how ‘sweet’ or ‘well behaved’ they are.

If your dog doesn’t get adopted within its 72 hours and the shelter is full, it will be destroyed. If the shelter isn’t full and your dog is good enough, and of a desirable enough breed it may get a stay of execution, but not for long. Most dogs get very kennel protective after about a week, and are destroyed for showing aggression. Even the sweetest dogs will turn in this environment. If your pet makes it over all of those hurdles, chances are it will get kennel cough or an upper respiratory infection and will be destroyed because the shelter gets paid a fee to euthanize each animal, and making money is better than spending money to take this animal to the vet.

Here’s a little euthanasia 101 for those of you that have never witnessed a perfectly healthy, scared animal being “put-down”.

First, your pet will be taken from its kennel on a leash. They always look like they think they are going for a walk happy, wagging their tails. Until they get to “The Room”, every one of them freaks out and puts on the brakes when we get to the door. It must smell like death or they can feel the sad souls that are left in there, it’s strange, but it happens with every one of them.

Your dog or cat will be restrained, held down by 1 or 2 shelter workers depending on the size and how freaked out they are.

Then a shelter worker who we call a euthanasia tech (not a vet) find a vein in the front leg and inject a lethal dose of the “pink stuff”.

Hopefully your pet doesn’t panic from being restrained and jerk. I’ve seen the needles tear out of a leg and been covered with the resulting blood and been deafened by the yelps and screams.

They all don’t just “go to sleep”, sometimes they spasm for a while, gasp for air and defecate on themselves.

You see shelters are trying to make money to pay employee pay checks and don’t forget the board of directors needs to be paid too, so we don’t spend our funds to tranquilize the animal before injecting them with the lethal drug, we just put the burning lethal drug in the vein and let them suffer until dead. If it were not a “making money issue” and we had to have a licensed vet do this procedure, the animal would be sedated or tranquilized and then euthanized, but to do this procedure correctly would cost more money so we do not follow what is right for the animal, we just follow what is the fastest way we can make a dollar.

Shelters do not have to have a vet perform their euthanasia’s so even if it takes our employee 50 pokes with a needle and 3 hours to get the vein that is what we do. Making money is the issue here not loosing money.

When it all ends, your pet’s corpse will be stacked like firewood in a large freezer in the back with all of the other animals that were killed, waiting to be picked up like garbage.

What happens next? Cremated? Taken to the dump? Rendered into pet food? Or used for the schools to dissect and experiment on? You’ll never know and it probably won’t even cross your mind. It was just an animal and you can always buy another one, right?

I hope that those of you who still have a beating heart and have read this are bawling your eyes out and can’t get the pictures out of your head, I deal with this everyday.

I hate my job, I hate that it exists & I hate that it will always be there unless you people make some changes and start educating the public.

Do research, do your homework, and know exactly what you are getting into before getting a pet.

These shelters and humane societies exist because people just do not care about animals anymore. Animals were not intended to be disposable but somehow that is what they are these days.

Animal shelters are an easy way out when you get tired of your dog (or cat), and breeders are the ones blamed for this. Animal shelters and rescue organizations are making a hefty profit by keeping this misconception going.

Between 9 and 11 MILLION animals die every year in shelters (Humane Society of the United States estimates 3-4 million) and only you - as a pet owner can stop it. I just hope I maybe changed one persons mind about taking their dog to a shelter, a humane society, or buying a dog without researching. For those of you that care—- please repost this to at least one other Craiglist in another city/state. Let’s see if we can get this all around the US and have an impact.”

I was on craigslist the other day and I ran into this article. I don’t know if this has been around already, or if it is already copied and pasted from a more major site. But what it is saying is true and real. I think everyone needs to be educated about it.

Haganai Episode 4 New favorite episode! NEW FAVORITE...

Haganai Episode 4

New favorite episode! NEW FAVORITE CHARACTER!

Oh Yukimura! Anime has blinded me! I should have known! Your so adorable! You deserve Kodaka the most! I don’t even care! AHHH!!

I only took one shot of the roller coaster part. xD There are a bunch of gif sets floating around tumblr of the dialog and the expressions but I literally laughed my butt off. It was so funny. xD That part is going in my top ten best scenes in anime of all time. I will post up that top ten later By the way so you guys know what I think is awesome.

I know there are a lot of “teams ” out there for who gets to end up with Kodaka, but my main hope is that Yozora and Sena finally realize they are good friends. That really is the point of the series. It is going to be difficult seeing how each of them are growing more and more obsessive over Kodaka but we will see. ._.

Fri, 08 Feb 2013 22:22:00 -0500

Haganai Episode 3

I completely stopped taking screenshots at one point. xD It was getting too intense man! I couldn’t contain myself!

This anime does a really good job in showing how the best of friends are the ones who fight the most. Yozora and Sena are the main two who showcase it but in this episode Kobato and Maria take light. x3 They are so cute. I love how Kate, Maria’s older sister looks exactly like her. In my opinion she has to be the most attractive character. She looks the coolest!

Kodaka is like.. the perfect man. ._. He is kind, modest, honest, and above all he can cook and be a caretaker. o_o Whoever he ends up marrying the woman is going to be the bread maker and he is going to be the stay at home husband! Look how well he takes care of the two girls!

Who’s side am I on? Sena or Yozora? Well I’m not going to say. e.e My closest friends know who I like more but I will mention that I think BOTH the girls don’t deserve Kodaka LMAO!

Last comment on this particular episode, I was DIEING when the party game started. Hilarious. Doesn’t beat the Persona 4 party game though.

Amnesia Episode 5

Even though we got to see Orion for a few moments absolutely NO ANSWERS have been given. =/

I have to admit. Though a lot of the characters seem very static and shallow the story itself is becoming very complex. Like, wtf is going on?!

Our spades man isn’t as complicated as I thought he would be though. Sure, he seems like a complete ass for dumping a girl after going out with them for three months but it is obvious he is looking for someone who sees him for who he is and not fall for him after looking into his eyes for a second. (Which to me is pretty hilarious since they all have the same type of eyes in the first place durr)

I can’t wait until our “Vash the stampede” guy comes into the light though. (Clover, the green guy, forgive me I don’t remember names very well unless I watch the same anime a few times or I really like the character.)

He seems interesting enough smart guy, looks shy, nice features and TALL x3.

Last comment, did you guys notice a lot of the scenes have the four colors in them at the corners? The scene where they are at lunch after the movie for instance. Green, Yellow, Redish purple and blue. xD

Well this ends my Amnesia Spam until Monday. Now to catch up on Haganai!

Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:47:00 -0500

Amnesia Episode 4

I SEE WHAT THEY ARE DOING HURR.

Well, I don’t know how it will be explained within the anime but it is pretty obvious to anyone that we are going to go through ALL of the paths with the different guys and see what happens when she is with each guy.

So in the “First timeline” we saw, basically, a glimpse of each future. NOT past memories. Hrmm interesting twist. Wasn’t Orion trying to get in contact with her last episode too? Very peculiar indeed!

I’m not looking forward to this next guy. I’m not a fan of the cool, prince types in anime. Well, unless they are the modest prince types. Not these super sly bishies nope.

And although our time with Shin was a hoot I wanted more with him! >.< Anyways…

Ending comment, Shin has interesting shoe sense no? Different colored boots? Little over board there! You belong on Gaia online! LOL!
