Begging for money is now the thing to do on the internet.
I had someone ask me for money at work because a lady's dog died. Not a service dog. Just a dog. I politely declined. Heartless Scoundrel !!!  w

I heard a while back someone made big bucks from the animal lovers.
He had a little rabbitt and he made a go fund me to buy food for it cause he couldnt afford it.
If he didnt get enough he was going to have to euthanize the rabbit.
Sort of like a nice ransom demand.
Apparently he made a bunch of money to feed the rabbit.
Dont know what happened to the rabbit but rabbit stew is pretty good.
What I found weird is that rabbits eat grass,lol

Interesting as I am struggling with this topic currently.
One: a girl was hurt pretty badly in a car accident and I wish her the best, but they are doing a fund raiser for her and her family to cover expenses and such. Her father who is in her life as a father is worth over 15 million.
Two: my sister, just had a successful surgery for cancer, (double mastectomy), which I am happy about. But now they are planning a fundraiser to cover her and her husband's unexpected expenses, she is short on days at work etc. Now both work, they can afford to build a cabin on the lake, going to go to Jamaica, own plenty of toys and newer vehicles, and complain they won't be able to retire until they're 70. I just cannot support this type of fraud in my opinion.

I read a story that the goal for fund raising of $ 50,000.00 was met and exceeded the total raised was over $ 253,000.00 if I remember correctly . FWIW I sent a prayer for her recovery .

How stupid are Americans?................................ the mike When it comes to animals, very! Just look at how many people get sucked into giving to ASPCA. Think of what those long, boring, expensive ads have to cost them.
The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.
