My drive to work this morning at 3.30am

Very often there is an elderly woman getting her exercise by going for a walk. I have no idea how far she walks but it would be at least 4 miles?
This morning she was walking down the centre of the road in her pyjamas and dressing gown. 3.30 in the morning.
Further along my route I see some small object on the road, as I near my thought was it was a large rat.
No, it was a small dog, a Chihuahua wearing a jumper. I did have to brake heavily as the little-un went out of sight in front of my car.
Reversing so as not to run over the little tyke, it scarpered along the road and I moved over to give it room.
At a T Junction there is a house with a dog that is obviously left outside all night. Closed in yard. This poor dog looks so forlorn every time I see it.
Middle of winter, less than 10 degrees and the dog is left outside.
To me it's demeanor is one of sadness and depression. I become slightly maudlin every time I see this dog left alone.

There's got to be at least a dozen stray cats around here. I usually see them on my after midnight walks. One person leaves several bowls of food at the end of their driveway for those cats. The cats are all over the neighborhood though. Even around my place.

Thing is these cats mange to be able to live in this heat. It can't be easy at over 120° f, 48.89° c.
I'd be tempted to grab it
