Went to the Oregon Humane Society this afternoon to stare at the dogs. Some of the rescued Shar Peis were still there. It was sad to see them with their treated injuries / ailments, thinking about the sort of life they lived in a puppy mill. Also saw a pair of older dogs together in the same kennel, unhappy to be there -- their owner died. There were quite a few small dogs and puppies there -- I guess Chihuahuas and Chihuahua-mixes are popular these days.
The highlight however, was in the small pets section where the rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, hamsters and birds are located. There was this one five-year old floppy-eared grey rabbit, whose eyes were obscured by hair, who really loved affection. He came up to the front of his cage and offered his head to be petted. He reminded me of my dog.
That was special.
