William Lightner Proudly Builds Shelter To House Rescued Animals
ATLANTA, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, November 20, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- While living in Georgia, William Lightner noticed a sad problem. A large number of animals without homes and proper care moved him enough to make a difference.
Lightner became concerned about the fate of many animals who were without homes. Whether left abandoned by past owners or born on the street, many animals are lacking the love and care they deserve.
No Previous Medical Care
The impact of these abandoned animals takes the toll on humans too. These animals abused by their previous owners often become aggressive towards people.
Another concern Lightner has with these animals is contagious diseases. These animals born on the streets have not received proper vaccines.
"When I take in an animal, more times than not I have no previous history information about their shots," Lightner explains. "But try to provide the necessary care the animal needs."
Easing The Suffering For Both Sides
William Lightner is quick to mention many people ignore the fate of abandoned animals. The appeal to help these animals is also to provide safety to humans.
Suffering should motivate more people because many never know when a person will be exposed to the dangers. Exposing yourself to possible dangerous animals while walking down the street is a risk in metropolitan areas.
Also, the climate in Georgia is an obstacle when it comes to providing care and shelter.
"Because of the warm climate, abandoned cats and dogs find it hard to find shelter when they do not have an owner," says Lightner. "They can become a pest to some people."
Lightner does what he can to help these animals. He also does not rely on animal organizations to help him out. He walks the streets overrun with abandoned animals and takes time to feed them.
Also, he offers water to animals that have learned to trust him. While the animals may not want to come to his shelter, they do welcome his offerings.
Unfortunately, he finds dead animals. He makes sure to properly dispose of these.
While it may be too late to take care of some animals, the majority of his findings are animals that can benefit from the attention.
"I find puppies in the worst possible physical condition," Lightner sadly states. "I keep four filled water bottles in my car because these animals I find are extremely dehydrated."
Educating Animal Owners On Where To Go For Help
Lightner can notice when an animal has had a previous owner. These are the friendly dogs and cats that are used to human interaction. This frustrates Lightner, sometimes to anger.
"How can someone leave an animal like this? Just letting them go on the street is sad. People need to know some shelters will gladly take them off your hands and give them care."
Not only has Lightner taken the time to bring animals to his shelter and feed the ones on his street, but he's also educating.
He has reached out to people looking for animal care help. From feeding, hospital visits, and recognizing symptoms of illnesses, Lightner has helped many owners. This has to lead to frustration levels lowering and more owners and pets beginning a happy life together.
Lightner admits that some might find it hard to believe that he uses most of his free time to care for stray animals. He sometimes leaves his place of work because he receives tips that a stray animal is in danger or has been seen in lousy condition.
But he explains that his love for animals makes his time spent taking care of them worth it.
"I do not see myself stopping my care for these animals," Lightner says with a smile. "I'll continue doing what I can for our furry friends."
