@AnimalImpactYT , No they are foster programs and adoption, there is no need to kill healthy animals just because we can.

Animal shelters dirty little secret.

PETA went after Vick like he was Hitler but yet PETA kills more dogs in a day than Vick did due to financial considerations of their upkeep- if not adopted out 1st.

@AnimalImpactYT I really dont think the issue is so clear cut. Some no-kill shelters manage very well and some incredibly poorly. I agree that it should be a goal to approach a no-kill situation. AKA no animals are suffering in shelters due to high adoption rates and lower #of strays through effective neutring and spaying programs. You can't go no-kill cold turkey, else you're right, animals will suffer greatly.

No kill shelters? You mean slow kill shelters. Animals suffer if they are caged for years. Putting the animals out of their misery is better than making them suffering.
