P.S. Tell Ms. Henning that

her so-called solution to charge Fayette County residents

a $100-$150 fee per pet after three to fatten the

county's pocketbook is ridiculous and out of line. That

same money could be spent spaying/neutering the pet, pay

for veterinary bills, or be donated to the numerous and

deserving nonprofit animal organizations.

For her to assume that just

because animal lovers take their pet to a vet when

they're sick and therefore can easily afford the extra

$100 for the county has been clearly suggested out of

ignorance.

Did Ms. Henning ever

consider the consequences of such a recommendation? I

believe this action would force animal lovers to hesitate

adopting a loving pet from a shelter or even rescue one

that has been abandoned.

Ms. Henning, let me know

the next time you have another brilliant idea. I'll keep

my pooper-scooper handy!
