Empathy is natural for small children. No doubt this wounded dinosaur toy is very disturbing to this small child. I have a six year old who would still very much find this injured toy disturbing so I can imagine how troubling that violence could be to a two year old.

Its better for a dog to eat than to not eat!! Marie-ClaireDawson do you buy raw dog food or raw meat and donate it to shelters and if you actually do you buy 80lbs of it which is the same amount that this dear sweet boy gave?!? I in no way support Pedigree, but if a child or matter of fact anyone for that matter chooses to spend their savings their hard earned money to buy food for homeless shelter animals than keep your negative comments to yourself. Can you really be so uppity and snobbish that you turn your nose up to charity cause it's not good enough for you!! We need to raise up and praise these young ones because they are our future!! I pray that no one ever turns their nose up at you in your time of need! I pray God opens your eyes and heart to the real world, not just the privileged world you seem to come from.

This should not be allowed. That bird could have worms or other things wrong with it that are not good for humans who try to handle them without proper protection. It is sweet that he cares about birds... perhaps he could visit an animal sanctuary where people can teach him how to handle such things safely.

Young man, that is one of the nicest things people can do for animals in a shelter. Th shelter workers are all so busy all the time, they don't get to spend a lot of one on one time with the animals. You are doing something very special.
