Millions of puppies and kittens are born on the streets each year – scavenging for food, desperate for shelter, and barely surviving. This nationwide crisis is completely preventable – and you can help. Will you raise your voice for ethical spay/neuter policies? Together we can help end the pet overpopulation crisis. In seven years, just one female cat and her offspring can result in 370,000 kittens. For one female dog, it’s 67,000 puppies in six years! Spaying and neutering are safe and routine procedures that can prevent overpopulation and shelter crowding for homeless dogs and cats. That’s why North Shore Animal League America enforces a 100% spay/neuter policy for all animals at our campus placed into homes. We also support Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate, Release (TNVR) programs for managed cat colonies because these efforts are our best chance at protecting dogs and cats from the suffering that results from rampant population growth. It’s our no-kill promise to never give up on an animal in need – and that includes ensuring they live a life full of dignity and love. If you agree, please add your name today.https://lnkd.in/gcqrwi2i#spayandneuter #spayneutersaveslives #SpayandNeuterAwareness #spayandneuteristhesolution #SaveTheStrays #northshoreanimalleague

Please stop breeding these animals just to see them destroyed. It breaks my heart. The most egregious thing is buying puppies in pet stores, online or Craigslist. These almost always come from cruel & abusive puppy mills. Greedy people who do not give even adequate care and just breed until the dog can’t and then abandon or destroy them. The USDA just rubber stamp these breeders & brokers. They often get inbred and face a lifetime of medical care. Please Google “ puppy mills” to learn more. Please share. Adopting & fostering whether it’s children or animals is the most powerful of the superpowers.

Puppy/kitten farms are where pet shops and 3rd party sellers often get their "products". If you buy a puppy/kitten and don't see the mother and how they are kept, you are likely unwittingly contributing to the cruelty. SO-CALLED "GOOD" BREEDERS ARE A PART OF THE PROBLEM. Healthy dogs/cats who've been abandoned and/or abused and babies from dogs/cats that weren't neutered/spayed by irresponsible guardians, desperate for a home, are KILLED, as shelters are full of unwanted "surplus" animals. Animals are treated like products, commodities that are bred and sold. People go to breeders and pet shops to buy a certain breed they want. If you love animals, help a poor little fur baby who needs a second chance at a happy life and a forever home. Of course you'll love any animal you'll give a home to, it's not their choice to come from a breeder. But we can choose to stop adding to the demand and be a part of the solution instead. When you give a home to a shelter or rescue dog, it will feel a thousand times better to save this fur baby, than going to a breeder. Knowing your new fur baby has been given a second chance and you've given them the happy life they deserve, will make you happier than buying any particular breed. #adoptdontshop It's like a SILENT ATROCITY, that nobody wants to think about.😞 Until it's government policy and legislation to ADOPT NOT SHOP and spay and neuter, the animal overpopulation problem and animal cruelty will continue. Too many people still consider this a "CONSUMER CHOICE" issue (where instead of a life, an animal is a PRODUCT, a commodity to be BOUGHT), rather than an ANIMAL CRUELTY issue, where we continue BREEDING domestic animals, knowing healthy, animals are PUT DOWN everyday like they are "waste product" because they are passed over for a shiny "new" animal of a designer breed. 😢😔 There is no justification for this.We cannot BUY, whilst healthy animals DIE! #EndTheDemandEndTheCruelty 🙏#adoptdontshop ❤#rescueanimals ❤#fosteranimals ❤#spayandneuter 👍#banpuppymills 🤬#bankittenmills 🤬#banbreeders 🤬#banpetshops 🤬 https://lnkd.in/exT6eHWN For anyone who thinks we don't kill shelter animals in the UK, YES WE DO, this happens everywhere: https://lnkd.in/e7hgwcZx https://lnkd.in/e9A-kHCt There is no justification, ZERO, for breeding more domesticated companion animals, whilst healthy animals are killed in shelters. We cannot BUY, whilst healthy animals DIE!End the DEMAND, end the CRUELTY. The only solution is to stem the flow and stop breeding more.
