The "masters" need to lighten the "slave" work by providing healthy abandoned and stray animals a chance to live amongst the community instead of culling (wrongly described as euthanising) them simply because they are not adoptable because they are less good looking or the fur not long enough and SPCA does not have the bottomless pocket or space to continue keeping them alive.
i don't care where you got the expression from, i think you need to stop referring to volunteers and rescuers like me as "slaves". what we do we do for animals, not for our "masters".

i don't like your tone. very condescending. you are clearly suffering from delusions of grandeur. you're very rude. its clear you think you are the only intelligent person in this forum.
