Why are beans so mean and judgemental?


The Litter Box is certainly the right name for his blog. The mean bean said
While in Santa Monica, one of my friends wanted to pay a homeless man money because he had a (well groomed and friendly) dog. I asked her - you want to give money to someone who would require such an animal to live without proper food and shelter? You support a guy who chooses for that dog to live like that? He’s a cruel and mean person. He could ask at any pet store, and get in contact with a half dozen no-kill dog shelters, and could give that dog a good life.

Apparently he doesn't understand that some people consider their dogs and cats part of the family, and would sooner amputate a limb then abandon a pet that has shown them loyalty and love. And his blithe statement that the guy could just contact a no-kill dog shelter shows how little he understands the problems facing cats and dogs in today's economy. The no-kill shelters are filling up fast and many do not have room for any more doggies or kitties, fewer and fewer people are adopting. We don't know this homeless person, but since the dog appeared well groomed we are betting the homeless guy is taking the best care of his dog he can. We know lots of beans that will do without themselves just so their cats or dogs can have the food or medicine they need.

At it really bothers us when some elitist snob says that only the people that can afford to properly care for their pets (and of course the elitist snob gets to define what properly care for them means) should have them. We know lots of people who have opened their homes and hearts to abandoned dogs and cats, even though they don't have the money to 'properly care for them' according to some people. We are sure that a cat or dog who is loved by his/her person is happy even if their person is poor and can't afford to give them 'caviar'.

We think beans should be less judgemental and more understanding, who knows one day it may be you on the street with only the love of a dog to sustain you.
