Loving an animal is not only about the happy moments.
It is about commitment.
Food.
Safety.
Medical care.
Patience.
And when life becomes difficult, it means finding a responsible solution instead of walking away.
So the question remains:
Should people who abandon or abuse animals face prison?
Many will say yes.
Others may argue for education, fines, or community service.
But one thing is certain: doing nothing is no longer enough.
Animals cannot speak for themselves.
So it is up to us to speak for them.
