No Kill animal shelters are essential in the fight to end animal euthanasia and promote humane treatment of animals. These shelters aim to save every healthy and treatable animal, providing them with care and a chance for adoption. Recent trends show a growing awareness of the importance of No Kill shelters in reducing animal euthanasia rates and improving animal welfare.
Petitions under this topic call for increased funding and support for No Kill shelters, advocating for policy changes to prioritize saving animals lives. One petition with over 100,000 signatures urges local governments to allocate more resources to No Kill shelters, highlighting the positive impact of these shelters on communities.
Join the movement to support No Kill shelters and help save the lives of countless animals. Your involvement can make a significant difference in creating a more compassionate and animal-friendly society.
Kentucky is considered one of the worst states for laws for animals. Any shelter can become no kill with compassion, dedication, and creativity. Nonhuman animals are not disposable objects but are living and feeling beings who deserve better than death just because they are homeless-it isn't their fault.
I have been doing TNR for 30 yrs. IT WORKS. 193 cats have moved thru my colony in 35 yrs. I have a registered colony with the city. It’s cheaper to do tnr than euthanize them.
As a foster for OCAC, I dispute the information in this petition. Yes, OCAC has to euthanize some cats and kittens. Rescues that claim to be “no kill” have every opportunity to step in to save these cats and kittens, but they are frequently “full” and cannot or will not accept any more cats or kittens. OCAC has limited funds, space and staffing. They go to extreme lengths to find fosters for these animals. I receive multiple pleas each day during kitten season begging for ANY foster long term or short term. They will split litters into smaller groups. They will accept very short term foster situations while they continue searching for long term fosters.
OCAC is prohibited from keeping unweaned kittens in their facility overnight where there are no funds for overnight staffing to bottle feed these kittens. OCAC IS prohibited from overcrowding in their facility, so they are forced to make very difficult choices to keep the number of animals within the permitted number.
How many of the OCAC cats and kittens are you currently fostering? If you want to help OCAC, you should be fostering for them. This morning, I have already received a plea for help from OCAC. THERE ARE 18 KITTENS THAT NEED FOSTERS SO FAR TODAY. This is everyday
Why don’t you petition Gavin Newsom to provide funds for more space at the shelter, overnight staffing, supplies and additional veterinary staff?
These animals deserve a chance at life. Humans have failed these innocent animals who have no voice. Ban Breeding until all shelters are empty with all animals having a furever home.
