Being home lately, with the TV on in the background, they play those abused/mistreated pets commercials so much. They make me cry and I have to turn the channel. I can't watch shivering dogs and sad-looking cats...the music and the on-the-verge-of-tears voiceover just puts it over the top. I took in a stray, abandoned kitty in June 2017 and now I can't imagine my life without him. So those spots hit me right in the chest, and I can't stand to see animals who may not be as lucky (and loved) as Jasper. I just hope/assume every one shown wound up in warm, loving home as soon as the camera stopped rolling.
