Mississippi Child Abuse and Puppy Mill Case (click link to post on Poppy's Page for full story)
This spring, outside of New Albany, Mississippi, a two-year child died of extreme child neglect which led to the discovery of a puppy mill being run by the same child abusers. The descriptions of living conditions and treatment of the children in this household and the animals are difficult reading. This case proves the point, as do many others, that where there is animal abuse, there is child abuse. We are their voice - the voice of the small and defenseless.

Ouida, guess if I told you I like to microwave little kitties, we could never be friends.
"On behalf of the defenseless among us, both human and animal, we need to learn from this case and understand that we have a moral obligation to do something to stop the cruelty that we know exists. We cannot sit on our knowledge and do nothing with it, in hopes that some one else will do something to make the cruelty stop. It will be a devastating and horrible shame if it is learned that there were people, in this Mississippi case, who knew about the abuse to the children and/or the animals and did nothing, in hopes that some one else would do something, given that the extreme abuse in this case resulted in the excruciatingly painful death of a little two-year old girl."
