No Kill Quick Facts More Cost-Effective Than Killing




More Cost-Effective Than Killing

No Kill is good policy that reduces costs associated with killing, enhances community support, increases user fees such as adoption revenues, and brings in additional tax revenues. To learn more, 

Statistics Disprove the Traditional Excuse for Killing

There are roughly three million dogs and cats killed in U.S. shelters annually because they lack a home, but about 23.5 million Americans add a new dog or cat to their households every year. We do not have a “pet overpopulation” problem; we have a market share challenge. When shelters compete for the market share of homes and keep animals alive long enough to find those homes, shelter animals are saved rather than killed

Consistent with Public Safety

Since the No Kill philosophy does not mandate that truly vicious dogs and irremediably ill/injured animals be adopted, it is consistent with public health and safety.

Who am I? a volunteer for a rescue. I became involved by adopting, then I fostered. Bingo brought me and others so much love. But,  I lost a sweet soul that was a kill shelter rescue, he went to the Rainbow Bridge before I was ready. . I cherished every moment with him. I will continue to morn but because of the joy he brought me, feel the need to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.
RIP Bingo
