@davidrevoy The phrase "we'll soon sterilize them all" felt very sudden and jarring to me.
...
It switches the text flow from gentle respect, consent, trust building & individuals.
To cold, calculated, determined, action on aggregate.
Even if I understand reason ~ population control & worry for the future of kittens.
...
Come to think of it further, that is so because it is jarring for you too, isn't it?
@iknowpony Sure, it is. It's not the financial side of it, it's because I know how they feel when I take them in a cage after a long evening/night without eating. How they spend the day at the vet, near the operation room, hearing all complaints of other animals, the smell of fear. How they suffer the post operation at wake-up... How I need to setup a room for them alone after operation, isolated, with cat litter and all. It's a bad day, or two, and takes time to setup and drive. But a TODO.
@davidrevoy You are a brave, strong person. And you are honest with yourself.
@iknowpony Thank you for your encouragements. Going four time in this process this month is going to be tough. 💜
