I'm so sorry that someone betrayed your kindness, Lizelle! It's tough when this happens. Someone who takes advantage of a person's kindness is the worst kind of person, IMHO, because it might dissuade them from trusting others again. It's good to listen to our gut feelings though—I, for one, am guilty of not always doing that. I hope Poe finds a comfortable and loving forever home.
Poe is my biggest concern, you are right, he needs a good forever home. Has already moved twice in his lifetime.
I trusted the wrong people and it was awful, but I will not let it make me distrust everyone. I'm going to be meeting a lot of new people, and look forward to that.
I hope you're keeping well Eric!
