BAN GAS CHAMBER EUTHANIZATION IN MISSOURI, OHIO, UTAH AND WYOMING

The Issue

There are only four states in the United States of America that still euthanize animals held at kill shelters through gas chambers. These states include Missouri, Ohio, Utah and Wyoming. This is an incredibly INHUMANE act and we need to give animals the peaceful passing they deserve if this is their fate. We must bring an end to the heartless and inhumane euthanasia of our beautiful pets.

Dogs, cats and other pets who are injected with proper euthanasia drugs are no longer conscious within three to five seconds. Compared to what happens with euthanasia from a gas chamber these beautiful animals are put in a little and dark gas box, often the same box from a prior euthanized animal who may have urinated and defecated before they died. Animals may convulse and struggle for air while they die from the gas and fear their lives. Under the best case scenario the animal will not lose consciousness for MINUTES if they are in the gas chamber however if the chamber is outdated, old and not well-designed or if the animal is very young, old, sick, injured or stressed out it can take much longer and then the animals organs will begin to shut down.

Please end this and transition to a humane form of euthanasia. It's so little to ask as it is cost effective and we need to bring awareness to end this heinous act. Let our fellow furry friends go in peace and free of fear and pain if they must go. It is the right thing to do to switch to a proper drug euthanasia than continue with this cruelty. BEGGING for voices! <3 Please bring this blessing into 2021!
