Another pound using the media to get the word out about their available pets;
While I’m not a fan of the associated article that details how awfully irresponsible their community is, at least these guys are trying to get the word out about the pets they have in their pound. Maybe, just like in the instance of Fraser Coast, the ‘irresponsible public’ will be the ones to answer the call and save the lives of these pets.
Combined with their new outreach desexing program for the pets of the disadvantaged, low income earners and pensioners, Logan seems determined to turn the situation around for their homeless animals.
An interesting statistic from the report was that 9 out of 10 cats are entering the Logan shelter are unidentified and undesexed (unowned). Unless a program of non-lethal ‘community cat’ management is introduced, it will be impossible to bring the kill rate of 600 cats in three months down. Fractious cats who’ve never lived in a home have no adoption prospects once in care – we must protect them from entering the shelter in the first place.
Logan needs their community’s support. If you live in the area, take the time to spread the word about their ‘Save a Pet’ campaign – they need everyone to step up and help them change their future.
