WHy are those ASPCA commercials so damn long? I seriously cannot handle them anymore. They make me want to curl up into a little ball and die because I feel so helpless.
Same here. :( I can't watch them without crying and have to change the channel. If I had more money to give, I would. If I had a giant home of my own, I'd fill it with adopted animals and love them forever. But that isn't an option right now, and I can't take the guilt that those ads inspire.
I've started changing the channel, too, but they're so fricking long. A couple of times, I've forgotten to change back because I've gotten into what I changed to.
But that isn't an option right now, and I can't take the guilt that those ads inspire.
That's kind of what makes me so angry at them. I do what I can, but those ads are designed to make you feel guilty and it feels like it's never enough. Just... *grrr*
I've been changing the channel, too. I thought the ones with songs were bad enough, but now that the animals ask questions, it just tears my heart apart.
Same here. I cried for two hours the first time I saw one. I would like to give them money, but I don't have any right now. Just lost my job, and my mother's entire income pays the car payment, bills, and food. Plus we have eight cats and a dog that we have to feed and take to the vet...there isn't anything left after that. And if we could take care of more animals, we would. But we have too many already, living in a crowded city with barely any yard to speak of.
I just started changing the channel cause I couldn't stand it.
