Safety is no Accident

To protect cats, animal shelters need to... - Recognize eartipping as a sign a cat has been spayed or neutered - Support #TNR or adopt a Shelter-Neuter-Return (SNR) program - Scan ALL animals for microchips IMMEDIATELY - Educate the public about community cats, who are at home outdoors - Enact humane, effective policies that create positive outcomes for every cat - Help provide low or no-cost spay and neuter to the public How we can transform shelters: https://ow.ly/4wIE50Q7tlM

Lifesaving animal shelter policy: - Do not impound eartipped community cats. They are already home outdoors and have been spayed or neutered. - If a non-eartipped community cat is impounded, immediately practice #TNR. Community cats are generally not adoptable and are extremely stressed in a shelter environment. TNR is the only humane, effective approach. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/eWymq-7z

So rescues work with certain shelters…some only take small or breed specific. Some don’t take behavior dogs or sick dogs listed for pre euthanasia, but if they seem perfectly healthy try anyway. Holds are being shortened. If you don’t agree then sign petitions and get involved. Nobody wants to see a healthy dog euthanized, and it’s shocking that it’s happening. Fosters don’t happen out of thin air, reach out to your company, and Highschools and active senior facilities and anyone who can help. When a shelter is in a no man’s land? Create a lifeline. DogsWithoutBorders O kills is the goal!!! Love you dog lovers and rescuers and vets and fosters.

Your local animal shelter needs your help.

Puppy/kitten farms are where pet shops and 3rd party sellers often get their "products". If you buy a puppy/kitten and don't see the mother and how they are kept, you are likely unwittingly contributing to the cruelty. SO-CALLED "GOOD" BREEDERS ARE A PART OF THE PROBLEM. Healthy dogs/cats who've been abandoned and/or abused and babies from dogs/cats that weren't neutered/spayed by irresponsible guardians, desperate for a home, are KILLED, as shelters are full of unwanted "surplus" animals. Animals are treated like products, commodities that are bred and sold. People go to breeders and pet shops to buy a certain breed they want. If you love animals, help a poor little fur baby who needs a second chance at a happy life and a forever home. Of course you'll love any animal you'll give a home to, it's not their choice to come from a breeder. But we can choose to stop adding to the demand and be a part of the solution instead. When you give a home to a shelter or rescue dog, it will feel a thousand times better to save this fur baby, than going to a breeder. Knowing your new fur baby has been given a second chance and you've given them the happy life they deserve, will make you happier than buying any particular breed. #adoptdontshop It's like a SILENT ATROCITY, that nobody wants to think about.😞 Until it's government policy and legislation to ADOPT NOT SHOP and spay and neuter, the animal overpopulation problem and animal cruelty will continue. Too many people still consider this a "CONSUMER CHOICE" issue (where instead of a life, an animal is a PRODUCT, a commodity to be BOUGHT), rather than an ANIMAL CRUELTY issue, where we continue BREEDING domestic animals, knowing healthy, animals are PUT DOWN everyday like they are "waste product" because they are passed over for a shiny "new" animal of a designer breed. 😢😔 There is no justification for this. We cannot BUY, whilst healthy animals DIE! #EndTheDemandEndTheCruelty 🙏 #adoptdontshop ❤ #rescueanimals ❤ #fosteranimals ❤ #spayandneuter 👍 #banpuppymills 🤬 #bankittenmills 🤬 #banbreeders 🤬 #banpetshops 🤬 https://lnkd.in/exT6eHWN For anyone who thinks we don't kill shelter animals in the UK, YES WE DO, this happens everywhere: https://lnkd.in/e7hgwcZx https://lnkd.in/e9A-kHCt There is no justification, ZERO, for breeding more domesticated companion animals, whilst healthy animals are killed in shelters. We cannot BUY, whilst healthy animals DIE! End the DEMAND, end the CRUELTY. The only solution is to stem the flow and stop breeding more.
