I am posting this because I am in very close emotional proximity to "Troy". When my family and I found ourselves homeless we tried everything we could to keep our two family pets. We, in the end, lost them to our circumstance. This is a terrible loss to my children and I even now, upon seeing the loving pet of a Black Lab or a Jack Russell, my heart yearns for one appreciative lick or tail wag.
These is a type of ministry we here at Brother's Keeper keep an eye on. Philanthropy (mean the love of neighbor- literally anthropos "man") also includes those things that most affects them. including pets. Many who are transient only need care for their pets until a living situation can be made. Yet who is willing to do that?
Thanks go out to Jordon Cooper for posting this article.
