There are two stray dogs that were dropped off by some random prick at our local city park sometime back around April or so. They appear to be some sort of mix between Beagle, Terrier, Dachshund, something like that.

The police are aware of them and sometimes come to check on them and even bring them treats. Animal control can't seem to catch them, nor does it seem like they're really even trying.

We can't adopt them, both because apartment rules forbid pets, plus they really need a good open fenced in yard to run around and play. But me and my roommate have been going out to the park almost every day to feed them, pet them and clean them up at least.

We're not the only people helping them either, numerous other regular park visitors are also helping out, within their means anyways. We talk around to see if anyone can hopefully adopt them to a forever home one day.

So far no dice there, but the pups are doing much better than when they were dropped off now. I'm starting to think the smaller of the two might have worms, but one of the regular park visitors that loves dogs said he's gonna get them some worm medicine soon.

I dunno what else to do really. We can't adopt them, apartment rules ya know, but until they find a forever home, we're doing our best to care for them, within our means anyways.

This is my actual real life human daughter. I adopted her from the RSPCA. She has a condition called felineitis, so please dont bully her. Also she's nonverbal and extremely sensitive to stimulus, so be patient with her.

One does not simply find a cat on the street...

...the cat finds you

I love the Cat Distribution System. It's how I got my cat.

Just shows how much stray cats and cat breeding is much more of an issue than stray dogs and dog breeding.

You really gotta delete your autocorrect and rebuild it....

Like there aren't cats for many thousands too?

I unironically feel superior having adopted wounded and hungry animal

I don’t know why I did it as I am not really the best person in my mind. It almost ended up badly anyway but like it all straightened out in the end after some… conflicts

It is still a wild animal though compared to all the other pets I seen. Like a small lion in 100 sq m apartment. I have no power or control over him.

I may give in one day and turn him into a pie
