NYC’s Homeless Pets Don’t Belong in Garbage Bags

February 29, 2012

Shame on the ASPCA, the Mayor’s Alliance, Animal Law Coalition and everyone else attempting to block legislation which would give pets in the NYC shelter system a fighting chance to escape the kill room.

No healthy/treatable pet should be sent to the landfill.

Photo of Biscuit, saved from NYC ACC, with his person Lily, as it appears on Facebook.

Thank you Karen for sharing this photo link with me.

    Great photo! What a happy surprise!

  4. Lisa Says:

    Isn’t it sad (and ironic, maybe) that rescue groups must save dogs from “shelters”?

  5. Morgana Says:

    We here in NYS are doing everything to kill the bill with the A’s bullshit in it. Keep all paws and fingers crossed.


  6. Beautiful Photograph. All NYC animals need a fighting chance. We’ll not let you down!

    It bothers me to the very core of my existence that shelter pets aren’t even safe from abuse and death. What are shelters for, if not to protect these animals, educate the public and promote adoption and life?!


  9. It is our Tax dollars that Pay to euthanize these Great pets. The only way our Government is going to change is if we act and speak out that this is not acceptable.
    How many animals has your tax dollars killed today?

    We are all on this earth, so much room to roam and share. The myth is, no room for homelss or lost.

    Such a beautiful but bittersweet photo. I hope all dogs are as lucky as Biscuit, but that doesnt mean they will be.
