Hello. My name is Connor Nolt. I am a seventh grader at Summit Middle School. I am writing to address an important issue that affects our community. The issue is pet abandonment. People abandon pets for many reasons. For example, people may not have enough time or can not afford food/medication for their pet. Sometimes something happens in the person’s life, like they have a baby, a divorce or maybe the person has to move somewhere that doesn’t allow pets. Occasionally, people get allergies. Maybe their pet has behavioral issues. It may be mean or attack an animal or person. Sometimes the person doesn’t know how to take care of it or gets bored of having the pet.

Letter to the editor: Please don’t contribute to the issue of pet abandonment
