Well, you would be surprised how many people actually do. If there is one thing that really pisses me off, it’s people who leave their pets locked in the car while they go shopping or out to eat. Oh sure, they left the window open about an inch. Like that’ll bring the temperature down!
Do they have any idea how fast the car heats up to over 100 degrees? These people probably wouldn’t have any compunctions about leaving a baby in the car. And why in the world would they bring a pet to the supermarket or restaurant in the first place?
If one needs to bring his or her pet with them, at least have the decency to leave the air conditioner running. Sure, it might use up some gas but I think that’s preferable to killing your pet.
I’m not normally a confrontational person, but don’t let me catch someone leaving a pet in a hot, closed up car. I’ll have him or her paged in the supermarket or restaurant and I have been known to confront and embarrass these inconsiderate people in public.
Just once, I’d like that pet owner to sit in the car with the windows rolled up while parked in the sun and see how long he can stand it.
So to those pet owners please, please, please put yourself in your defenseless pet’s place and think about how you would like to be locked up in the car.
