The Helen Woodward Animal Center has started a movement.
Today they want everyone to light a candle to save a life. Remember Me Thursday
Over 3 million pets each year go into shelters and don't come out alive. Mom used to volunteer with an organization that would euthanize (and she hates using that word for this purpose) for space. It was that among other things that caused her to leave.
The rescue we work with now is no-kill. They will take those that other shelters would put down. Their main expense: vet bills. And as much as we would love to be "out of business"....it won't happen until people spay/neuter and choose to adopt rather than buy.
There is a virtual candle gallery going today.
