LETTER: Story on local homeless, animals highlights wonderful work of organization

Thank you so much for the wonderful May 22 article on Courtyard and Urban Underdogs, which exist to help people and their animals. Having had the privilege of donating to Urban Underdogs, I would like to expand on some of their services and requirements that help the pets of homeless people.

This wonderful service provides food, care and shots for the pets of the homeless and makes it a priority to get any pet spayed or neutered and to encourage people to sign up their pets for ongoing food delivery. This is one of the most important services I can think of for any rescue.

It is disheartening to see how many pets that end up in the shelter are unaltered, but at least that is taken care of before they are adopted. That being said, Urban Underdogs more than does its part to help with the ongoing problem of people not spaying and neutering these wonderful animals.

LETTER: Columbia kids need to learn to pay their own way

Frankly, if I had kids at Columbia who participated in these “protests,” I’d yank them out of school, toss their stuff onto the lawn and tell them to get a job, go live in the real world and pay your own way.

In the 2020 election, Mr. Biden ran on promises he has failed to keep. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
