Ban euthanasia for non-health related reasons at all American animal shelters.

Created by P.R. on June 02, 2013

"Kill shelters" that regularly euthanize cats, dogs, rabbits, and other animals for no other reason than a lack of space ought to be banned. Their inhuman and brutal conditions are an insult to the pride of this nation, as no developed country ought to tolerate such institutions within its borders. The administration, Congress, and the court system ought to make the elimination of these institutions a priority, and ought to immediately seek methods of funding non-kill shelters throughout the country.

Additionally, we petition the administration to consider criminalizing any killing––euthanasia-related or otherwise––of domesticated animals for non-health related reasons.

The spaying and neutering of animals must also be considered to reduce the current space epidemic.

Thank you.
