Tsunami brings better treatment to pets.

I found this article today on Reuters news service. The article is about dogs and cats in Thailand and other areas effected by the tsunami last December. You can access this article by this link: http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/BKK97867.htm Perhaps this development of pets getting more humane treatment is one good thing that has come out of this tragedy. Pets were often abandoned before the tsunami and would sometimes gather in packs. There were cases of these packs attacking people. Greater awareness of pets in this region has led to pet shelters, pets being found new homes, and new laws being proposed to promote ethical and humane treatment of dogs and cats. I am always on board for good treatment of pets! This article is not to long if you want to read it. As usual I welcome comments.
