Unbelieveable

There have been all these natural disasters happening in the world as everyone knows. The hurricanes have been the biggest discussion because there have been so many in such a short period of time. I am wanting to talk about how people escape to safe areas and shelters but leave their animals. I can not believe that some people would do something so selfish. It is a common agreement that any pets or animals someone owns becomes family. I do not understand how if an animal becomes family they can be left behind so simply. On top of that I do not understand how if that animal is left behind why would you not go back and at least look for your family member of the four legged kind. There is a phrase from the movie Lilo and Stitch that I am going to use.Ohana means family, family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten. The four legged creatures we bring into our home become family so why would this phrase not apply to them too. Now all those dogs that were left behind and forgotten are going to make new families that may not do the same.Do you consider your four legged friend your family? Would you leave them behind in that kind of situation?
