I do appreciate that some users on here worry about their continued safety and anonymity, but I would assure anyone who has not taken part do so. We, where we live, care very much for our closeted existence, as well as our security in the wider world. Saying that, we thought it worthwhile to take part. If we are going to spread the word and lend support to those in similar circumstances, then it is worth "educating" the non-zoo world. We are not monsters or abusers, we care deeply, possibly more so than normal pet owners, for our companions, and it needs to be said and clearly understood.
