Save Animals In Shelters Inc. is a not-for-profit charity saving hundreds to thousands of homeless pets a year. We educate the public through social media and attract people to our website. Our employer identification number is 35-2439982. This website is to inform and educate the public about animal welfare in the USA. Most people are not aware of the truth concerning animal welfare in the USA. If they knew, they would not go to any Breeders or Pet stores who charge an absurd amount of money for a pet. It is estimated that 1 to 2 million animals are euthanized (killed) every year in Animal Shelters which happens in most states. These numbers vary because there is no mandatory national database to report statistics. Then there are many Vets that will euthanize animals for behavioral issues, which most of the public find unethical especially now with the professional training and medication available. It is not against the law to euthanize a pet which is even more disturbing. To top it off there is no such thing as a No-kill Animal Shelter. No-kill Animal Shelters have the liberty to euthanize 10% of the homeless animals at any given time and still retain their No-kill status.WHY ARE THEY KILLED? There is not enough room to house these animals. And yet if you turn down every street there is an empty building.
WHY ARE THEY HOMELESS ? There are so many reasons why a pet becomes homeless: people accidentally die, die, the pet is jealous of new born baby, people lose their home, divorce, people ran out of money, go to nursing homes, and then there are people who purchased a pet and decided that pets are not for them. And every week we hear the same thing “my pet will never be homeless or go to a shelter.” And our response ….”then whose pet is it in all these Animal Shelters?”
There is no giant plan to expand or build more animal shelters, so it will remain the same. The big charities do great work and their focus is saving animals as well. They produce all the yearly statistics for animal welfare, and handle large major issues like: floods, hurricanes, etc. These large charities have major expenses with paid employees, benefits, rent, and some retire with full pensions. Again, there is no master plan to house more pets.
Then we have puppy mills and Breeders that keep producing more animals, so the killing will continue. Many people do not do the research to obtain a pet. People in animal welfare try and convince people to “adopt dont shop.” Most do not listen or understand the death cycle. If they rescued and adopted a cat or dog from an Animal Shelter or Breed Rescue the killing would end. The public somehow thinks the animal shelters or rescues have pets that are worthless.
Within Animal Shelters and Breed Rescues, there are kittens, puppies, and older available. About 35% are full breed and all are up to date on their shots. They are not free and there is a process to obtain a pet. Some people think they should be free which does not make any sense. There is a process to have this pets available.
THE HOUND IN THE POUND - people do not realize that the kitten or puppy they just purchased at a Pet shop or Breeder will probably be their HOUND IN THE POUND at a future date. Where do people think the animals in shelters come from? We try our best to educate the public and that is our mission.
