Today on the way home from the store for some Nyquil cause I have bad chest cold I passed and slowed to take a close look at an Opposum on the side of the road. It was seriously wounded. I drove on because I had no where to put it in my little car. I got home and laid down in bed where I found I couldn't stop thinking about that little animal suffering there to death. I got dressed and went back in my truck picked it up, it was still alive. I work for vets so have the means to put the animal down, which I did and laid it deep in the woods near my house.
I always get so upset, my family thinks I am nuts. Last week I rescued and release a little brown bat. The week before there was a deer. Every time I turn around there is another animal. It seems like no one cares anymore. Once in while when I stop for an animal there will be another soul stop too and we exchange feelings without even speaking.
Am I to sensitive or are these the right things to do? It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't get so upset over it, many times balling my eyes out as I put an animal down. I just feel like God has asked this of me, to be there for the little creatures that can't help themselves.
Of course there are also the many domestic animals too!
Does anyone else do these things?
