You may be asking yourself this question- I mean, shouldn’t animals go to the shelter to find new owners who can provide for them? Isn’t that the right thing to do? This is a complex issue mused over by shelters all across the country. Animal shelters are always balancing capacity for care with community need. When an animal comes into the shelter who has an owner, it denies a kennel to a pet who is without a family. Every day that animal stays, that kennel could be providing safety and an opportunity for another who needs it more. Shelters are also scary places for pets to be - and this fear often causes them to act differently then they normally would- being an owned pet makes it even MORE difficult to adjust to kennel life. This often leads to animals who, despite coming to the shelter to find a “better” owner end up not being adoptable and potentially euthanized. The human-animal bond is ancient and does not care for our societal norms and opinions- family is family. Ownerless pets number in the hundreds of thousands all across our country- and our local shelters are best suited to get adoptable animals to adoptive families! https://static1.squarespace.com/static/6001c0ce1028293a91e46b21/t/6001d00612bf9279ef41ea21/1610739702906/jesse-borovnica-6EchiwVg7C4-unsplash.jpg Home - Supporting those in our community who get left behind Supportive community programming takes many shapes!
