Spay Day USA-No More Homeless Pets!

February 23, 2010

Objective:
Spay Day is an annual campaign of The Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International to inspire people to save animals thru spay/neuter.

For every human born today in the United States, 45 cats and 15 dogs will be born. Six to eight million will end up in shelters. (30 % pure bred - 55% unaltered). About half will be euthanized because there simply aren't enough homes. In addition, countless homeless animals, who never make it into shelters, will scratch out a meager existence on the streets - often becoming threats to public health and safety. This makes pet overpopulation the major cause of death and suffering for companion animals.

You can make a difference by telling your personal stories about your own pets, educating people about the benefits of spay/neuter, and giving them information on low cost spay/neuter resources in your hometown.
