I am a foster care giver. I have a foster cat named Savannah. I also had a foster dog named Buddy who passed away recently. He was a gift from God. but he needed to go back to God. I will miss him so. He would have been put down if I did not take him into my home. Please do not have these animals put down unnecessarily give them some love. Let them live.

These non for profit animal rescue centers are doing you a favor you have no right to charge them $15 a head when they are donating their service and not making any money in return that's greedy!

PLEASE, listen to the community. WE, members of the society and tax payers refuse to have our money used for such cruel and inhumane practices the MCAS does. The local news showed videos showing how the employees kill dogs in rooms with piled dead bodies and also questioned the method, very cruel and not used anymore by many counties: the heart stick. That is unacceptable for a society from the first world, which should be role model. Please listen to us, our money must be spent in another way, not to pay those irresponsible and unscrupulous employees. Innocent animals are not only mistreated but killed without any need and this has to stop. There are many rescues willing to help but the effort is truncated many times. Please, let's work as a community to become a better place for people and innocent animals.

Animals are being treated like merchandise ... there's a place for all and if someone wants to try to make a bad situation good, why not let them? Good luck Lisa ... you're an angel!

Unfortunately too many Animal shelters and Rescue organizations have become GREEDY and have lost their purpose. When saving the life of an animal becomes a financial transaction that determines the destiny or quality of life of an animal abandoned, abused, or surrendered the focus is no longer on that animal and the use of threats to kill instead of care become the weapon of choice used to fill the pockets of those who may have at one time had good intentions. THE COMMITMENT MUST BE LARGER THAN THE PROBLEM. lest you become PART OF THE PROBLEM.It should cost more to KILL than it cost to CARE. It's time to end the profiteering and the hypocrisy.

Innocent animals, why are we killing them. It's our fault that they are homeless. Have compassion, it's the only way.
