On September 11th many people died - it was a day none of us will ever forget. Many of the people were single and even some couples who worked together in the Twin Towers were killed and left behind animals - Money came in from all over to help the New York Shelters help the animals. The CACC and other shelters began to look for the "next of kin." Most of the relatives of the victims did not want the animals for various reasons. And so these animals become part of the New York City kill shelter regime - seven days and if they are not adopted, they are euthanized. Many private individuals are taking animals out as fast as they can - the shelter is not providing any documentation on the animals and so they all have to be tested, given their shots and if their is not scar to show a spay, they have to be opened to make sure they are altered! This is being done without help from the shelters - and by regular every day people paying out of their own pockets.
Helping Paws has agreed to start taking as many of these animals as we can - to do the medical work and adopt them out - Thanks to Donna and the people who put on the Connecticut Pet Expo, I will be going on three television stations tomorrow morning to tell this story. Hopefully there will be donations and people who sign up to adopt the animals. These are animals that have not been abused - they have not been abandoned on purpose, they have not been neglected. They are animals whose humans did not come home one day. It does not seem fair that these animals die. It is an unacceptable ending to this tragedy!
