School Pets

To all those parents and teachers that think it's cute and educational to have pets in children's classrooms, listen up! At the end of the school year, those cute and educational hamsters, lizards, ducks, chicks, birds, gerbils and others are left at the local animal shelter to be destroyed. That's right, they're killed because no one wants to take care of them for the three months of summer vacation.

Just something to think about in between the oohs, ahs, and "Oh, isn't he cute's?"
