QOTD

What is the legacy you want to leave behind?

I want to leave behind all the love and empathy I have to give, my values and my heart.

I want to have made a positive impact on the mental health community and the views and prejudice surrounding mental health. Particularly with regard to mental health and crime, too. There’s so much that still needs to be said, done, and changed.

I want to leave behind some sort of animal sanctuary for homeless, abused, feral and dumped dogs and cats.

I want this to be a worldwide mission not restricted to just my country, and to carry on and continue for many years to come. In my time here I’m hoping to encourage changes to the laws and legalities around animal abuse.

There should be harsher fines for abuse. You always hear that the prisons are full so people won’t get sentenced, well, whatever pain they inflict on the animal, inflict it back. And bring back the death sentence (very controversial but I agree with it). That’ll open up some space in the prisons. Also, after ONE instance of animal abuse, inflict a lifetime ban on owning animals. We should all have to have a DBS type certificate when purchasing an animal, where instances of abuse flag up. Why is this not a thing?????

Drivers should have to stop if they run over a cat and call authorities the same as they have to with dogs, they’re both domesticated pets and should be viewed as equal. But the most important goal of all of this, is that I want to be able to save lives and give love to all the animals who have never felt it before. As you can tell, I’m very passionate about it.

I’m hoping to open up an animal sanctuary in the next year or so, it’s just gathering the funds and knowing where to start.
