That damn SPCA commercial should come with a warning before it airs every time.

[Shakespeare]

Yes, I donate. Yes, both of my cats are rescues. And that commercial just kills me every time I see it.

1. Yeah. I'm with ya.

It just aired - I'm watching Meet the Press.

I love Sarah McLachlan, I love animals - but jeez, I shouldn't have to grab a box of tissues for commercials.

[TZ]

4. It makes me cry...

My kitties are strays found in someones yard..There was a third kitten I couldn't take and I always feel soooo guilty about it with that commercial...
Nice to see ya, JGD...

[Flaxbee]

2. I run from the room, fingers in ears saying "la la la la..."

every time it comes on (or I turn the TV off, if I can find the remote). I have 7 cats, every single companion animal we've ever had has been a stray or rescue. I can't handle the commercial, either. :hug:

[flvegan]

3. Pure genius.

That song has been a proven tear jerker for animals for going on a decade now.

[Shakespeare]

7. It's not the song so much as the one-eyed shih tzu that sets me off every time.

Great commercial, it just breaks my heart every time I see it.

[WinkyDink]

8. For me it's the kitty at the end, who reaches its paw out between the cage bars.

[SOteric]

9. What she said.

Damn, that's a hard advert to watch. Puts a lump in my throat.

[Rhiannon12866]

11. That's the one that gets to me, too.

I take the older ones, and have adopted two dogs prone to seizures, and have had a lot of vet bills, but I still feel guilty about that little dog...;(

[texanwitch]

5. Me to.

I donate monthly.

My housemates donate monthly.

Please everyone give so the commerical doesn't come on so often.

Between the pictures and the song, I didn't stand a chance.

[stuntcat]

6. omg EVERY time

:cry: :cry: I have had to get up and leave the tv before, soon as I hear the music. Now whenever that song comes on my computer I can hardly keep it together. Her voice will always make me think of sweet doggies that no one loved :cry: :cry:

[Rhiannon12866]

10. I am totally with you. That one rips my heart out and I have to leave the room.

All my guys have been rescue, too, seven dogs and three cats in my life, because I adopt the older ones. And I donate to animal charities, too. I hope that it wakes some people up, but it gets to me everytime.;(

[khashka]

12. Yeah me, too.

The other one that gets me is a local one about adopting kids.They're all older, ethnic or kids with problems. Therefore unadoptable. Rips my heart out.

Khash.

[UTUSN]

13. Sarah breaks my heart EVERY time. I have to switch it sometimes. n/t

[Lavender Brown]

14. It airs constantly on BBC America

I can't take it either. x( Poor things.

[Misskittycat]

15. Totally agree. I have to leave the room until it's over.
