Please help STOP this policy from taking effect. This policy sends a terrible message to the community about the value of animals and will make them appear as disposable products, resulting from a lack of education and overbreeding of animals without any real regulations.
The animals should not have to pay the price for the way people have chosen to live their lives. Please give them a chance and introduce a sustainable program for both animals and people.
Here is the original article excerpt and link:
Aransas Pass Animal Control has upset more than just the locals of the Texas town after the city’s manager announced a new policy to euthanize all animals that stay in the shelter longer than three days. In a letter to the residents of Aransas Pass on the city’s Facebook page, the city states that the number one responsibility of Animal Control is to control the stray animal population. The letter pointed out that Animal Control is not intended to be an adoption facility. The temporary new policy, adopted by city manager Sylvia Carrillo, was implemented June 20, according to Action 10 News, who only discovered and reported on it this week.
