How long before animals are put to sleep (euthanized)?

There is no specific time period we hold animals. AC&C rescues 43,000 animals per year. We are also an “open admissions shelter” meaning we don’t close our doors to newly arriving animals when we are full.

If someone brings an animal to our shelter we are required by law to take it in. Therefore, we must always have room for the dogs and cats that are in need of rescue. During the winter months, when intake of animals is slightly lower, we can hold animals for longer periods of time than we can during the very busy summer months.

Many animals are placed but the ones who are not, usually due to illness and behavior may be humanely euthanized. However, the euthanasia of animals is not acceptable to us and we will continue to work hard placing animals until one day all adoptable and sick but treatable animals are in loving homes. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
