Happy Caturday, Missians!
I hope everyone has been having an awesome day. Thanks to all of you who joined us for today's episode. This was another serious topic, but one that needed to be addressed none-the-less. Too many animals are ending up in shelters, and many of them will not make it out alive. There are some groups of animals that are not as wanted as others, and this makes it harder for them to be adopted. Animals in this category include: senior pets, black cats, (sometimes other black animals), and of course breeds of dogs that have been given a bad rep, such as pit bulls and rottweilers. Animals in these categories are euthanized more often than other animals (and sadly, many of these babies were once someone's pets).
Remember November is adopt a senior pet month, (along with pet cancer awareness month and pet diabetes month), so give an older shelter pet a chance!
If you missed the show today, and want to learn more about "kill shelters" vs. "no-kill" shelters, (and the pros and cons of each), you can still listen in the archives--and check out links to show information on our facebook page. Check out those links here:

You can also help with the animal shelter situation by remembering to spay and neuter your pets. You can also volunteer to help out at your local animal shelters. An extra set of hands would always be appreciated. Animals housed in these shelters need human love and contact until they can be adopted. And don't forget to consider fostering as an option too!!!!!
Until next time, this is your host J-----

I'm 19 years old. If I were in a shelter, would you give me a chance? |
If I were a totally black cat, would you adopt me if I needed a home? |
If I were a breed with a bad reputation, would you let me be put down? |
