people for the execution and termination of animals

no jokes. no cute pics or funny stories. just another post on the horrible things peta has done under the guise of animal welfare.

the 2009 numbers are in. peta killed 97% of the 2,366 animals they "took in" last year, adopting out only 8. this is the same organization that called out president obama for killing a fly, and wants punxsutawney phil to replaced by a robot. if it wasn't so shockingly horrific it would almost be laughable. these people are sick. no wonder they want to stop no kill.

but where is the outrage by hsus and aspca? where are the news corps? why are celebrities still lending their names to a campaign of lies? why is peta still receiving millions in donations? when will it end?

no kill now!

a standing ovation

this morning, for the first time ever, no animals were killed at the town lake animal center in austin, texas.

that's because last night, the forward-thinking and compassionate austin city council unanimously passed a no-kill policy for the city's shelter, thanks to the hard work of fixaustin.

the shelter euthanized 32 percent of all the animals it took in last year. the new policy will put an immediate stop to killing animals at the shelter if there is empty cage space, and mandate that austin move toward a 90 percent save rate at the animal shelter.

the council received a standing ovation after the measure was passed. we hope madison isn't far behind.

no kill reno

it's always fun to post on a positive story in the no kill world. this one comes from reno, nevada where hard times only strengthened the resolve to stop the killing.

"we turn challenges into opportunities."

"last year, the NHS found homes for 9,184 animals—up front 4,539 the year before she started. that’s an increase of 102%."

now, let's go madison. we can do it.

new amendments to oreo's law

we've been following oreo's law for awhile now - legislature aimed at preventing any animal in new york from being killed when other options are available.

now the law has been amended to appease some unexpected opponents of the law - namely ed sayres, head of the aspca.

we'll keep you posted. for now, check out the no kill advocacy center for ways you can get involved.

stealing your own dog

what would you do if you couldn't afford your dog's vet bill and the dog was going to be put to sleep? probably what this guy did. isn't it amazing what a little help from the community can do? no kill now.

more news regarding the ethics of uw's animal testing. chancellor biddy responded in favor of the decision that testing is alright. we wonder what the student body thinks of all this?

aspca vs. oreo

remember oreo's story, the dog in new york who was killed despite offers of rescue?

the state of new york responded and pushed to pass "oreo's law," prohibiting any animal from being killed in a new york shelter when other options are available.

now ed sayres, head of the aspca, is trying to shoot down the law. why? nathan winograd explains here.
