Demand an End to the Systematic Killing of Community Cats

Nick M., animal lover, and Columbia County, GA homeowner, goes the extra mile to ensure the neighborhood cats are fixed and vaccinated. Unfortunately, one of his neighborhood cats, Felix, ended up at the county shelter. When a local rescue attempted to sign for Felix to have him placed in a managed colony, they were flat out denied. A few hours later, Felix's life came to a sad end; just another one of the 60% of cats who never make it out of the shelter alive.

Felix's left ear tip indicated he was already fixed and vaccinated. There was a rescue willing to sign for him, and place him with other community cats in a safe place, where he would have food and shelter. Instead, he was killed only 48 hours after coming into the shelter.

The practice of killing healthy community cats outright needs to end. Tell Linda Glasscock, manager of Columbia County, GA Animal Services, that:

1) Any healthy community cat should get the same stray-hold as any other dog or cat coming into the shelter;

2) Any healthy ear-tipped cat, should be transferred to a GA-licensed animal rescue that is able to place the cat with a managed colony, property, or private barn;

3) Any healthy community cat should have a chance to be adopted by any approved applicant, following the stray-hold period; rather than summarily killed just because someone deems them not worthy to live.
