This is so unbelievably sad. My prayers are with you at this very difficult time, Sun. Pit bulls in the hands of ignorant people really scare me.

{{{{Sunrvrose, Cedar, Otter}}}} Sun, my heart is breaking for you! I hadn't been in here due to BB and a kind angel from tvch let me know I needed to be here more and they were right. I share your excruciating pain and hot anger. I hate seeing animals exploited and used to hurt others, encouraged. When I lived in Santa Ana, I feared all the pit bulls loose and also hated knowing that the obnoxious roosters were probably used in cockfights. But to your babies. OMG, I know that pit of despair is so deep right now. I think the screaming is quite good therapeutically and I'd wish you access to a punching bag, as well. I wonder if all of you who want something done about this should go to your local paper or, better, tv station and see if you can get some publicity? Sometimes those in charge need to be put on the spot before they do something. As for that hole in your heart and in your bed, I hope that in time you'll feel a little nudge from Cedar that "this one needs you, Mom" because hearts like yours are needed by so many furkids out there. I'll pray that your cats come home and the other dog and if not that whatever happened was as swift as possible. I just hate what happened.

Thank you all for you kindness. Shepherd is still MIA. Animal controll is FINALLY on their way. now have seen all but one cat. so six are accounted for, till next time This whole herding cats thing isn't funny any more, I cant get them rounded up. I slept because I remembered I had some old Soma from when I hurt my back a while ago. Still can't stop crying. This is soooo horrible.

Mamie, the link didn't work. I guess the laws in california still regard our babies a property. You can bet that I will be at Small Claims Monday moring filing a 5000 suit. My neighbor who has been working for months to get this stopped is in Oregon right now, but she will be home on Tuesday, she is going to help me. That pic is Cedar in the snow year before last.

Sun, the pain is just unbearable, I am so acutely aware of the anguish. (We suffered a pitbull attack in our own home several years ago and, luckily, Herc survived.) I called the local newspapers, who ran it on the front page. City council held hearings and laws were revised in our city as a result of the outcry (stemming from many attacks over the years, some far worse, involving children--but given an impetus via the newspaper article about Hercky). When you are ready, I suggest you do just that. Let the reporters come and take pics of your lovies' bodies covered up--and give them photos of how they were. It will help in getting this whole thing more under control. And those pitbulls, IMO, should be destroyed. (Wish I could say the owners, but I guess I can't say that.) My heart goes out to you, Sweetie. I'll keep you and all of your lovies in my prayers. Do let us know if you find your cats and Shepherd. ETA: Lot of posting going on here! Just saw you've recovered all but one cat. Hope the loner shows up. And dearly, dearly hope the Shepherd appears.

Beautiful pic, Sun. I'm sorry that the link didn't work. It's the one that Chewpito sent me. I'm glad that Animal Control is finally on their way. I hope that something very good comes out of all of your tragedy. It doesn't seem fair but maybe Cedar will be responsible for changes.

Kansas is finally making animal cruelty a felony because someone poured acid on a puppy. Sad that that's what it takes.

Sun, I am so sorry and sickened by this. I am bawling my eyes out while typing. I cannot even imagine your pain. I will pray for you and hope that something is done about this. I think you should call the t.v. stations. {{{Sunr}}}

I just hope that the animal control guy will go look for BJ, the shepherd. I tried to search the field last night, but it is about 2 and a half acres. I'd have to do some kind of grid search to find his body. I don't doubt that he is dead too. I hate to keep just wrenching out the tears, but yesterday morining I had 3 of the best dogs in the world, and today I have none. I can't bare it.

Sun, Chewpito sent me a variation of the link, so that I could try posting it for you. This link worked for me, hopefully, it will work for you, too. Dog Bite Law: Dangerous and Vicious Dogs

Thank you for the links, but they only apply if the dogs kill or injure a person. As I said before, these dogs have now killed 5 dogs, seriously injured another, killed numerous cats, and miniature horse. AND I just learned from animal control that despite they took away one that was identified as a killer of a dog, now the people have 5 more.
