Because the Humane Society is an open admissions shelter, it can never turn an animal away – regardless of how little space is available.
Thompson said they wanted to avoid resorting to euthanasia to create some much-needed space.
“Euthanasia hasn’t increased at this point, but that’s what we’re trying to avoid,” she said.
Your furry friend could be first on the list to receive the toxic injection if you bring them to the shelter right now, Thompson warned.
“People need to realize that when they are bringing their animals to us that [euthanasia] is a very strong possibility at this point.”
