Say YES to No-Kill Shelters and Animal Care Centers

As a community - and by that, I mean WORLD community - we need to put more emphasis into no-kill shelters and animal care centers. Too often, I have heard stories from members of the community about taking good, loving, healthy animals to a shelter, only to find out that within a day or two they were euthanized.

There are so many options out there, if folks would only take the time to act with their hearts, instead of their ‘bottom line’. Folks need to get educated, act up, voice their concerns and just plain get out there and help the ones who cannot help themselves.

I recently came into possession of a book written by a gentleman who is a leader in the No-Kill movement, Nathan Winograd, called “Redemption: The Myth of Pet Overpopulation and the No Kill Revolution in America”. I highly recommend to anyone and everyone - READ THIS BOOK!

In fact, I don’t just recommend it… I CHALLENGE everyone to read it.

Of course, to read it will educate you on what is truly happening in shelters across America that still believe euthanasia is the only option for the five million healthy cats and dogs killed in shelters each year.

Peace Out!
Julie
