If You Can't Afford It, Don't Adopt

It drives me insane when people buy or adopt pets without thinking about what it takes to care for one. If you don't have money - don't do it. A pet is like a child. If your wallet can't take a beating, don't bring another mouth to feed into your home.

I was browsing Craigslist Pet Ads and found this little guy. I showed Troy the ad and he immediately said, "let's get him!" I looked at him like he was crazy. Although I do love animals, we already have two dogs and one cat. There is no way I'm keeping another one. The most recent pet we adopted, Bear is a handful. Our original plan was to foster Bear but Troy fell in love with him so our plans quickly changed. I'm trying to avoid a repeat of that situation.

I'm not planning on adopting the dog in the ad but I let the current owner know that he could use me as a last resort. If he's unable to find someone to take the pup, I will foster him and find him a new home. I rather do that then have him go to a shelter.

Are you in California? Are you looking for a pet? If so, contact the creator of this ad.

He sure is a cutie pie. Please adopt him if you can.
