My son gets so upset when these commercials come on! (And daughter) And this has been going on for as long as I can remember!! He is 12 now and still gets very upset. We have rescued 6 dogs and 12 cats over the years. We don’t need to continue with seeing this kind of abuse of animals Over and over -well you know. In one hour it played 5 times! Ridiculous! It should be rated unfit for children to see. AND my most biggest sadness is all the children dying starving etc in America - and other countries. THATS the kind of commercials should be seeing if any. We help two children in Africa. The world needs more people helping our Children. Of course it hurts me terribly seeing animals being abused but that doesn’t mean I should have to watch it on tv. Children being abused well, maybe people would realize there are bigger needs. I know stop watching tv! I will be doing that for the next 21 days!

Tired of seeing these commercials knowing that the money is not going toward the animals, sad just sad to get rich off the sympathy of others and not even put the money towards the animals.

These commercials are awful. They're guilt-inducing and emotionally manipulative. I used to think the aspca was better than that.

So glad I came across this. I CANNOT STAND THESE COMMERCIALS. I have to carry around the remote control with me everywhere just in case I start hearing that sad music so I can turn the channel. I'm a way over-the-top animal lover and those images never leave my brain. I give, I donate, I foster and adopt. Please stop showing these horrible images. I can't even watch TV Land anymore.

Instead of spending a lot of money on advertisements, like this super annoying one on TV, they should rather use the money for what they claim tot work for. Almost 50% of money is used for salaries and fund raising

The ASPCA Commercials are just horrible to watch...I believe they do need funding, but getting it through horribly sad and depressing means is Not what people want to see on their TV Screens.

Im sure a less traumatic commercial can
be devised. I think these commercials make people immune to the bad conditions and just upset people who can't afford to help.
