Savannah: I was there where you left me for two whole days, sleeping right on the side of the road. The noise from the cars terrified me, but I did not move. I was waiting for you.
Last night, one of those cars stopped, and a lady got out. She invited me to lunch, but I said no. She invited me to sleep at her house, and I also said no. I tried to explain that I was waiting for you, but she wouldn’t listen. She pulled out a leash and said I couldn’t stay there any longer. I bit her several times and ended up peeing on myself as I growled and cried! She didn’t understand that she was separating me from you! She took me against my will, and we drove off. I was so sad because I knew you would be worried. We ended up at her house.
I kept screaming, hoping you would hear me, but you never came. I vomited because of my nerves, feeling so sick. I kept telling her I had to go back because you would think I abandoned you when you saw I wasn’t there! I, who love you with all my heart and soul, have not stopped crying since we separated a few days ago. I want you to know, that I would never do that to you.
I don’t know where you are now or why you stopped the car and left me there. Surely you had something very important to do. Can you come find me now, Mommy?
Today I ate because my tummy was hurting. I also slept on a very soft bed. And by accident, I also wiggled my tail a bit. I’m so sorry, please forgive me. She’s just being nice to me. She said I could stay forever. She’s calling me Savannah, but I already have a name. When you pick me up, you can tell it to her. You’ll see how surprised she’ll be when you explain to her that this was a big mistake.
Because Mommy, you’re coming back for me, right?
Pets are not disposable when we don’t want or need them anymore. They are a lifetime commitment. They are family! Thank you so much to everyone who adopts and rescues them until their last loving breath. Because of you, this world is a better place.
Savannah was rescued by Pet Search on February 1, 2021. She was adopted by her Pet Search foster family, Carlie and Jamie.
