That’s the role of the SPCA, but they weren’t available.”Īugust 2022/Aurora, Colorado: reported that a public facility with “no-kill” policies doing business as Aurora Animal Shelter was full and would “no longer accept” dogs from residents who couldn’t or wouldn’t care for them any longer “until further notice.”Īugust 2022/Big Spring, Texas: reported that city leaders had approved the first reading of a resolution that would halt “no-kill” policies at the public animal shelter, which was full. According to the report, “Three dogs were also rescued and returned to the owners-although the animal warden does admit the dogs were in poor condition, she has no authority to remove them. The report said, “According to the York County animal warden, cats are not considered personal property and if there’s nowhere for them to go-in this case the SPCA-they are simply released and left to fend for themselves.” The “rescuer” said that on a previous occasion, she “took 7 cats, 3 dogs, a snake, a rabbit and a duck” from the same property. I told them I could not care for the animal and they said my alternatives were to find a ‘trailer park’ to dump the cat off at or euthanize myself.”Īugust 2022/York, Pennsylvania: reported that a self-professed animal “rescuer” had alleged that a facility with “no-kill” policies doing business as York County SPCA had refused to accept 13 cats and three dogs from a property after the owner of the animals had been evicted.

The lucky ones are taken to well-run open-admission animal shelters, where they either find a well-screened, permanent home or are painlessly euthanized in the arms of professionally trained, compassionate people.
