Yes I know what you mean. When I got my cats I was living in London
and I made a comittment to myself that if I was ever to move then I
would take them with me. To me, anything else was just being lazy and
irresponsible. Six years later I moved to Sydney and they came with
me. They were in quarantine for a while which was awful but cats are
far more resilient than people give them credit for. They are now
still with me and happy.

The very least people could do is to try to rehome pets before having
them killed.
