On seeing another poster of a child holding her lost pet

Another poster of a child holding her lost pet. When I see them, man, the sinking feeling that I get. Why can't pets just learn to stay at home? Why are they always dying to go on the roam? I haven't seen or heard of one happy ending yet.
This is not why we did love you ~ and learned to think the whole world of you ~ just so you could sneak out the back door ~ never to be seen anymore ~ except in visions ~ with a coyote glowering down from above you.
