Rescue Group Voice Mail

Author unknown

Hello: You have reached 123-4567, Tender Hearts Rescue. Due to the high volume of calls we have been receiving, please listen closely to the
following options and choose the one that best describes you or your
situation:

Press 1 if you think we are veterinarians and want free medical advice.

Press 2 if you know we are a rescue organization but want to save money
and have us give you free, untrained medical advice anyway.

Press 3 if you make $200,000 a year but still want us to pay to spay the
"stray" in your yard (house).

Press 4 if you have a 10-year-old dog or cat and your 15-year-old son
has suddenly become allergic and you need to find the dog a new home
right away.

Press 5 if you have dogs or cats, had a baby and want to get rid of your
dogs or cats because you are the only person in the world to have a baby
and dogs or cat at the same time.

Press 6 if your dog or cat is sick and needs a vet but you need the
money for your vacation.

Press 7 if you just got a brand new puppy or kitten and your old dog or
cat is having problems adjusting so you want to get rid of the old one
right away.

Press 8 if your little puppy or kitten has grown up and is no longer
small and cute and you want to trade it in for a new model.

Press 9 if you are elderly and want to adopt a cute puppy or kitten who
is not active and is going to outlive you.

Press 10 if your relative has died and you don't want to care for their
elderly dog or cat because it doesn't fit your lifestyle.

Press 11 if you are moving today and need to immediately place your
150-pound, 8-year-old dog or 10-year-old declawed, never-seen-a- vet cat with dental problems.

Press 12 if you want an unpaid volunteer to come to your home today and
pick up the dog or cat you no longer want.

Press 13 if you have been feeding and caring for a "stray" for the last
three years, are moving and suddenly determine it's not your dog or cat.

Press 14 if you are calling at 6 a.m. to make sure you wake me up before
I have to go to work so you can drop a dog or cat off on your way to
work.

Press 15 to leave us an anonymous garbled message, letting us know you
have left a dog/cat in our yard in the middle of January, which is in
fact, better than just leaving the dog/cat with no message.

Press 16 if you are going to get angry because we are not going to take
your dog or cat that you have had for fifteen years, because it is not
our responsibility.

Press 17 if you are going to threaten to take your ten year old dog or
cat to be euthanized because we won't take it.

Press 18 if you're going to get angry because the staff had the audacity
to go on vacation and leave the rescue in care of a trusted volunteer
who is not authorized to take your personal pet.

Press 19 if you want one of our perfectly trained, housebroken, kid- and
cat-friendly purebred tiny dogs that we have an abundance of.

Press 20 if you want us to take your dog that has a slight aggression
problem, i.e. has only bitten a few people and killed your neighbor's
cats.

Press 21 if you have already called once and been told we don't take
personal surrenders but thought you would get a different person this
time with a different answer.

Press 22 if you want us to use space that would go to a stray to board
your personal dog while you are on vacation, free of charge, of course.

Press 23 if it is Christmas Eve or Easter morning and you want me to
deliver an eight week old puppy or kitten to your house by 6:30 am
before your kids wake up.

Press 24 if you have bought your children a duckling, chick or baby
bunny for Easter and it is now Christmas and no longer cute.

Press 25 if you want us to take your female dog or cat who has already
had ten litters, but you can't spay her because she is pregnant again
and it is against your religion.

Press 26 if you're trying to make one of our younger volunteers feel bad
and take your personal pet off your hands.

Press 27 if your cat is biting and not using the litter box because it
is declawed, but are not willing to accept the responsibility that the
cat's behavior is altered because of your nice furniture.

Press 28 if your two-year-old male dog is marking all over your house
but you just haven't gotten around to having him neutered.
Press 29 if you previously had an outdoor-only dog or cat and are calling because she is suddenly pregnant.

Press 30 if you have done "everything" to housebreak your dog and have
had no success but you don't want to crate the dog because it is cruel.

Press 31 if you didn't listen to the message asking for an evening phone
number and you left your work number when all volunteers are also
working and you are angry because no one called you back.

Press 32 if you need a puppy or kitten immediately and cannot wait
because today is your daughter's birthday and you forgot when she was
born.

Press 33 if your dog's or cat's coat doesn't match your new furniture
and you need a different color or breed.

Press 34 if your new love doesn't like your dog or cat and you are too
stupid to get rid of the new friend (who will dump you in the next month
anyway).

Press 35 if you went through all these 'presses' and didn't hear enough.

This will connect you to the sounds of tears being shed by one of our
volunteers who is holding a discarded dog or cat while the vet
mercifully frees him from of the grief of missing his family.
