If you would like to follow either of the links you will find the details yourself. I also believe I stated 'free or low cost'

I can afford vet treatment for my furry friends and assure you they are very well looked after (thanks for designating my place a 'good home' I appreciate this even though you've never visited)

I do not subscribe to the notion that animal companionship should only be open to the affluent sections of the community, I'd encourage insurance and regular health checks as preventative measures. Food, equipment and treatment costs should always be considered when taking on the responsibility of an animal but perhaps your stance is fuelling the cull?

I think many elderly people, or the more socially excluded benefit from sharing their lives with an animal companion. When I worked with people with learning disabilities they really loved the 'house cats' (Annie and Lucy) and were able to show love and caring in a way they could not verbalise. I think animals teach children a lot about caring, responsibility and sadly grief. An animal makes a house a home (for me)

I am not backtracking in the slightest, I am being polite and reasonable (I understand that this may be a difficult concept for you to grasp at present) I am secure in my belief and knowledge.
