People may not abandon their pets. What is
justice? Why can’t one kill or deceive others? Justice is to respect other
people’s right. Yet, pets are not people. Pets are movable goods, belonged to legal
owners. Since pets are physical properties, nothing can be wrong about
abandoning one’s pet.
Many people feel guilty about deserting
pets, but this sentiment is myopic. Imagine a family which can no longer raise
a dog, for it moves to an apartment abandoning pets. It would be nice if the
family gives the dog to someone else, but it may be impossible; most only want puppies.
Then, leaving the dog on a street is the most effective and convenient way to
find a new owner. If it is sent to an animal shelter or hospital right away, it
must be killed if it is not adopted. But if it is left on a street, it can be either
found by a kind, new owner or brought to an animal shelter after a few days. It
might be killed by accident, yet it can be exposed to many people and live
as long as possible.
You fulfill most of the requirements in the prompt, but spend far too much time on your opposite opinion without truly establishing your real opinion. I think it should be about 50/50 and come across as a real mini-essay rather than a paragraph that seems a bit absurd (as the prompt states - produce a "rational" argument - and obviously it is very hard to rationally state that pets should be abandoned). Maybe this issue is too personal for you.:) If this were a real college app instance I would encourage another approach or another issue. Some good writing but need more attention to the prompt.
