“FOR
PETS’ SAKE”
Words
& Music by Dotti Holmberg-Waddell
Verse
1:
Too
many cats and too many dogs
Too
many to find a home
Too
many born…it’s out of control
So
many must die, starve and roam.
We need to face the reality
There’s too many cats and dogs
Of 27 million born each year
Now 10 to 12 million are gone.
Verse
2:
Make
up your mind, it doesn’t cost that much
It’s
sad to see them suffer.
If
not a licensed breeder, get your pet fixed
To
spay and neuter is the answer.
What a cruel thing for us to do..
They need food, shelter, and a lot of love
And an annual visit to the vet.
Verse
3:
Have
a little heart, smarten up today
Look
at all their faces
You’ll
know it’s the right thing to you to do
Don’t
rely on euthanasia.
Spay your dogs and cats right away
Ask others to do the same
For the sake of the pets, get involved
Don’t just sit around and complain.
Bridge:
Kill
the crisis, not the animal
Out of sight, out of mind
It’s not humane, and it’s not kind.
Speaking:
For pets’ sake,
let’s work together
To solve this major crisis
Volunteer some time, educate others…
It’s humane and it is kind
For pets’ sake
