This post was submitted to heighten awareness about animal shelter adoption. Adopt a pet today!

I have visited many animal shelters in my day, and it’s an unsettling feeling seeing all of the innocent dogs and cats in cages without a home. Shelters do the best they can to feed and provide shelter for these homeless pets, but their help is limited by money and the amount of boarding available. It’s up to the public to step in and adopt these precious animals.

This was forwarded to my attention via Email with the following description:

This is a video of one of the homeless in Santa Barbara and his pets. They work State Street every week for donations. The animals are pretty well fed and are mellow. They are a family. The man who owns them rigged a harness up for his cat so she wouldn’t have to walk so much (like the dog and himself). At some juncture, the rat came along, and because no one wanted to eat anyone else, the rat started riding with the cat and often, on the cat. The dog will stand all day and let you talk to him and admire him for a few chin scratches. The mayor of Santa Barbara filmed this clip and sent it out as a Christmas card.
