Pa samo treba slušati stare Latine, pametni su to insani bili:

Nauka, kao i obicno, ima sve potrebne odgovore. Problem je sto se ponasanje koje bi se u razvijenom svijetu tretiralo kao ozbiljan i opasan poremecaj, kod nas smatra nekom licnom zrtvom sa uzvisenim ciljem, ekscentrizmom ili tek bezazlenom, simpaticnom brigom za zivotinje.

Mental health issues
Evidence suggests that there is "a strong mental health component" in animal hoarding, though it has not been firmly linked to any specific psychological disorder.[46] Models that have been projected to explain animal hoarding include delusional disorder, attachment disorder, obsessive–compulsive disorder, zoophilia, dementia, and addiction.[52] Direct evidence for most is lacking, however.[45]
Delusional disorder
Animal hoarders display symptoms of delusional disorder in that they have a "belief system out of touch with reality".[46] Virtually all hoarders lack insight into the extent of deterioration in their habitations and on the health of their animals, refusing to acknowledge that anything is wrong.[45] Furthermore, hoarders may believe they have "a special ability to communicate and/or empathize with animals",[52] rejecting any offers of assistance. Delusional disorder is an effective model in that it offers an explanation of hoarders' apparent blindness to the realities of their situations.
Attachment disorder
Another model that has been suggested to explain animal hoarding is attachment disorder, which is primarily caused by poor parent-child relationships during childhood. It is characterized by an inability to form "close relationships [with other humans] in adulthood".[52] As a result, those suffering from attachment disorder may turn to animals for companionship. Interviews with animal hoarders have revealed that hoarders have often experienced domestic trauma in childhood, which is the basis of the evidence for this model.[52]
Obsessive–compulsive disorder
Perhaps the strongest psychological model put forward to explain animal hoarding is obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). An overwhelming sense of responsibility for something is characteristic of OCD patients, who then take unrealistic measures to fulfill their perceived duty. Animal hoarders often feel a strong sense of responsibility to take care of and protect animals, and their solution—that of acquiring as many animals as they possibly can—is unrealistic.[52] Further, the hoarding of inanimate objects, practiced by a majority of animal hoarders,[45] is a fairly common occurrence in OCD patients.[52] These connections between animal hoarding and obsessive–compulsive disorder suggest that OCD may be a useful model in explaining animal hoarding behavior.[52] However, this theory has also been refuted by some; Dr. Akimitsu Yokoyama theorizes that animal hoarding could be explained using Asperger's Syndrome.[53]
Umjesto da zajednica pomogne tim oboljelim ljudima i da im pomogne da se socijaliziraju i vode produktivne, sretne zivote, mi smo svojim nemarom prouzrokovali potpuno obratnu situaciju. Dosli smo do toga da nekoliko promila osoba koje ocito pate od ovih poremecaja pretvori cijeli grad u svoje dvoriste, u 'pseci grad', ocekujuci da svi postanemo poput njih i da zivimo kraj desetih hiljada nezeljenih zivotinja, te da se brinemo o njima, dijelimo svoj prostor s njima, zrtvujemo svoje zdravlje, sigurnost i resurse kako bi im pomogli.
To je suludo i nije mi jasno zasto se struka ne pozabavi ovim problemom. Kad kazem struka ne mislim na veterinare, vec na psihijatre.
