Rabies and Rats

Why does the conversation always end up about rats? Because I love them. I love cats and I don't talk about them all of the time. I am obsessed with them. I ran over a squirrel today. Was it dead? I ran it over, of course it was dead. If you run over an animal while I am in this cab you will have to take me to the hospital! What if there is a possum that is half dead, lying in the road with it's guts hanging out and I run over it to put it out of it's misery? I will kill you if you kill an animal! You can save it! It is a possum. Who is going to save it? They have places! The vet won't save it. A wild life refuge will! They have those! They won't save it. Don't you eat meat?
