Every Healthy Animal has the Right to Live











More than 70 percent of cats who enter our nation's animal pounds and shelters are killed each year. That's 7 in 10 cats!

It's going on all across America. And it's got to stop. Pledge to be part of the solution! >>

We cannot be silent as countless cats are killed every day. It is time for the nation's cat lovers and advocates to stand and be counted. Just a few ways you can help are to:

  • Promote feline-friendly practices at your local shelter.
  • Write a letter to the editor of your local paper.
  • Distribute literature about stray and feral cats and animal pound and shelter policies in your community.

Time and again, representatives of the shelter system say things like: "We kill them to alleviate future suffering; to save them from fates worse than death; because we don't have any room for them and where will they go instead?" This reasoning is wrong at the most basic - and moral - level.

Every healthy animal deserves the right to live. It is our duty as a society to find ways to make that happen >>
