The comic strip Mutts, written and drawn by Patrick McDonnell, is breaking my heart this week.
McDonnell is doing a series of shelter stories, so far focusing on pets left behind in foreclosures.
I've been blogging about the mortgage crisis affect on pets for over a year now.
Like I said, it breaks my heart.

It is so very sad that people leave their pets behind. The worst is when they leave animals inside the house and no one even knows they're in there until a month later when someone finally enters the empty house, only to find deceased or severely emaciated pets. I cannot imagine a dog lying there day after day wondering when mom and dad are coming home and when he'll be able to eat again. Maybe people don't realize that it could happen that no one will enter the house for a long time? Please pay attention to your neighbors' homes if they look empty - check to see if any pets are inside :o(
