This probably wouldn't be an issue if folks were more responsible animal owners.

People get a cat or dog, then dump it when:

*they have to move.
*they don't think it's "cute" anymore.
*they can't afford it.
*they got it for the kids and the kids are "over it."
*they just get tired of it.
*any number of reasons.
*it becomes pregnant (BECAUSE OWNER FAILED TO SPAY/NEUTER) and they can't take care of the puppies/kittens.

Some people don't get that once you get an animal, it is YOUR responsibility to care for that animal. If you cannot do so, it's your responsibility to FIND it another home or make sure someone else can take care of it.

Also, if you only have ONE cat and only WANT ONE CAT, it is YOUR responsibility to spay/neuter so you don't end up with more than you can handle.
