Unfortunately, there's a stigma around homeless people (at least in cities here) that they're criminals and drug addicts, and that giving them 50 cents is contributing to their heroin addiction rather than helping them get a clean pair of pants for a job. There are a lot of people who will contribute to the homeless by donating necessary items to shelters, like clothing and bedding and food, instead of putting money directly in the person's hand.
Stray animals on the other hand, are every day struck by cars and left to die, trapped and poisoned, abused, and ignored. Honestly, I just think you are restricting your sample size to the 5-10 people on this forum who are pro-animal rights. |

Maybe, it's just as likely to starve or die of exposure since it's a domesticated animal.

It's really not that difficult for a cat to find shelter or food domesticated or not.
I see plenty of strays around here and as wild cats are not native to around here I can only assume they were once domesticated too. And the same ones come back year after year.

See, for me, the deciding factor is that while humans are capable of humanity, seeing them fail to exercise it or blatantly choosing not to is why I feel little sympathy for them.
Of course, if we're going to be realistic, I prioritize humans above animals in most cases as well, I just don't prioritize them as far ABOVE animals as you do, Dirty. |

Clear? We suck. But I still like most of us. That's because I compare them to other human beings. Animals own us in every possible way though.
