Overpopulation Results in Euthanasia

Help Reduce Pet Overpopulation.
Have Your Pets Spayed Or Neutered.

Every Year Over 12 Million Animals
Are Euthanized In Shelters Across The Nation.

While you are viewing this page, thousands of cats and dogs are being euthanized across the United States because no one wants them and there isn't enough money or space for the shelters to care for them. Many more are suffering and leading lives of quiet desperation on the streets. The new millennium is a time for hope, for change, and for new beginnings. Spay/Neuter is the single most important thing you can do to make a difference. Please have a heart. Encourage everyone you know that has a dog or cat to spay or neuter them.

It is estimated that today there are over 60 million cats in America, alone. More than 70,000 dogs and cats are born each day due to uncontrolled breeding. Many cats have never experienced the luxury of a warm lap and lead hard, cruel, short, and tortured lives as strays. Of cats placed in shelters, 75% are euthanized because there is no room or funds to care for them. Maybe they are the lucky ones in light of the animal abuse and laboratory experiments that take its' toll on countless numbers of cats' lives and inflict pain and suffering beyond our comprehension.

If you are thinking about adding a pet to your family, be a hero, please consider adopting a shelter pet and if you already have pets – for life’s sake – spay and neuter.
