Kathleen K. I can't beleive this is happening because the animals here in Hawai'i aren't even being fed or having a shelter here so i am not so proud about that and i want to know what is the people who is way beyond this humane society so i can call them and complain of what a work it has been to them, i adopted 5 dogs and 3 cats already and it isn't good for these animals to suffer. 11/4/2009
kathleen k I think that it is not fair to have the people fed instead of the animals. 10/27/2009
chelsea ayers i think if a person knows that they can't take care of the animal then they don't need it because all that they do is starve and do with out water and love and it isn't fare to the animals. 10/15/2009

Tom Wagenor Poeple who wantly abandon an animalI.E. move to another home ans leave a dog behind should be accountable for there actions.There are options when you no longer want,say a dog,when you do not become responsible and utilize those options you should be held legally responsible for your actions in a court of law,regardless of what stste your in 8/14/2005

crystal I think that that is a sad stor about how animals are almost dieing. That there are not enough animal shelters asround the world or just in new maret to keep all the animals alive. I hope that the government does something about this before it is too late. expessically for all of the other animals. 1/11/2005
