As the tourism capital of the world Orlando generates 28.6 BILLION annually in visitor spending for the Central Florida area. The Orange County Convention Center has 2.1 million square feet of exhibit space and ranks second only to Chicago's Convention Center. Clearly with statistics like this Orlando is doing just fine.
YET In Orange County, 2,096 dogs and 142 puppies were euthanized in its past fiscal year, records show. AND three times more felines were put down: 4,687 cats and 2,691 kittens. IN TOTAL 9,616 animals were killed needlessly just at this one shelter in Florida !!! This is absolutely shameful !!
Where are all these tourist revenue tax dollars going to?? surely there is money to support NON KILL SHELTERS not only in Orange County but Florida as a whole.
They say Orange County is truly the best place to live right on their website, how can that be when they are slaughtering animals at this rate? There needs to be massive change, education, and a complete overhaul of the animal welfare services in Florida.
Please sign this petition to put the lives of animals in the forefront to get them the help they so desperately need. FLORIDA STOP KILLING THESE ANIMALS !!!! THANK YOU
