He had one piece that discussed the many pets he had had in the course of his life and what their fates were which really hung me up. When you baldly & unapologetically admit to mistreatment of animals you kind of lose me. My take on it is once you get a pet you’re responsible for it. If circumstances dictate that you can’t keep it any more you MUST find it an adequate and safe new home… it’s your responsibility. I can’t forgive someone thinking that just taking a dog and abandoning it in the woods not once but twice (the first time the dog found her way home) is okay. So after that I couldn’t really continue.
What I read before I quit was interesting but I’m afraid I couldn’t recommend the book. Maybe someone who doesn’t find the animal incident as shocking as I did would enjoy it all the way through.
