I love animals and used to donate to different animal foundations. But I will never donate anything again. I'll tell you why:

About a month ago, I found a website dedicated to animals. Out of curiosity, I started to explore it. This website, which was called Save The Animals, had all sorts interesting facts about pets and animals. It also had cute pictures of pets with their owners. The website had a page titled "DONATE", which I immediately clicked on. The heading on the "DONATE" page read, "Donate to us now to help stranded animals in need!" They claimed to take wild animals who were injured and help those animals heal.

As I scrolled down, there were pictures of the animals that they helped. There was a picture of a rabbit who was run over by a car while running across the street. Beside it was that same rabbit, and it had made a full recovery! I was pretty impressed as I saw other "before" and "after" pictures of injured animals, but the picture that really pushed me to donate was one of a cute puppy. The puppy had been brutally attacked so badly that his eye fell out of his eye socket. Next to it was a picture of that same puppy, two months later, happily sporting an eye patch. I made the immediate decision to donate 1,000 dollars to Save The Animals.

Fast forward to last week. I was eating chips on the couch, lazily watching the morning news. I wasn't paying that much attention until I heard the newscaster talk about a foundation called Save The Animals. I snapped out of my daze, and what I heard next made me never want to trust any website ever again.

This "organization" was run by some drunk man who was in desperate need of money. But the worst part was that this man took random animals and fatally hurt them. Before he hurt his victims, the man would snap a quick picture of the animal in perfect health. The poor animals all had no idea what was to come. Then this crazy man would stab the animals to death and take a picture of that. So the "before" pictures were actually the "after" pictures, and I SUPPORTED this the whole time!

And about that poor puppy... that horrible man just put on an eyepatch from a PIRATE COSTUME before MURDERING the dog.

Needless to say, the man was arrested. However, I needed therapy, and my second therapy session is tomorrow. Yesterday, my therapist told me that it helps to write down what is bothering you to "get it off your chest" so I wrote this...

Don't bother looking for the website. It has since been deleted by the FBI. But please DO check out my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWos2pvrDHinX73wQ8DQ0Aw
