I ask for the privilege of not being born... not
to be born until you can assure me of a home and
a master to protect me, and the right to live as
long as I am physically able to enjoy life... not to be born until my body is precious and men
have ceased to exploit it because it is cheap and plentiful.
Did you know this?
70,000 puppies and kittens are born every day in
the USA alone. Compared to only 10,000 human births,
its clear that there will never be enough homes
for all these pets.
- Almost 8 million pets are euthanized each year
because there are no homes for them.
- Letting your pet have just one litter does cause pet overpopulation. All euthanized pets came from
just one litter.
- Spayed and neutered pets are better, more
affectionate companions.
- Spayed and neutered pets live longer, healthier
lives.
- Think breeding is okay because your pet is a purebred? So is one out of four animals brought to shelters. There are simply too many cats and dogs - mixed and purebred.
