and can empathize with the position Ms. Colette has found herself in.
Most of us have done rescue and know all too well how easy it is to get overloaded but the call comes and we say, "What the hell? Send it on."
It is so hard to say, "No." Especially when we know the animal will probably be put down if we don't take it.
Most of us, though, have discovered we can't save the whole world.
We have also learned not all animals should be saved. There are things worse than death and our resources are better spent providing quality life for those who should and can be saved.
