After threatening to sack a Director who spoke out about their appalling performance in saving lives, the ironically named Cat Protection Society Victoria did just that.
Ms Alexandra, dumped after a special general meeting on October 18, said the society had become complacent. ”It’s important the general public understands what’s going on,” she said. ”These cats are being killed because of complacency, a lack of effort. I think homes could be found for these cats, certainly more cats than are currently being adopted out.
However, despite killing 11,348 of the 12,491 cats and kittens it received and two more Directors resigning in protest;
… the organisation denies being in turmoil.
I guess the only question I have is HOW CAN YOU NOT BE IN TURMOIL? You absolutely SHOULD be in turmoil! You should be panic stricken, disgusted with the situation you are in and begging ANYONE with an interest in saving, rather than killing cats, to lend a hand. Even if you flat out tried for a terrible result, I don’t think it would be possible to see a worse result than 11,348 cats dead and in landfill, so for it to be the result for“Australia’s Largest Cat Welfare Organisation” it is a failure of epic proportions.
How did they get into this mess? It is a plan we can all choose not to follow. How do they get out of it? Simply, they don’t. When board members are quitting because they can’t make headway and a 90% kill rate doesn’t bring ‘turmoil’ to an organisations management, there is simply no hope for the cats of Victoria.
Once again it is the secrecy that protects murdering cowards. When the general public becomes aware, change can happen for these beautiful animals.
