Each year somewhere around 6 to 8 million dogs, cats and other
animals in the United States end up in shelters - and about half of
those are eventually euthanized. The number of these "animals in
need" has reached epidemic proportions and continues to grow. "No
kill" and "low kill" shelters are forced to turn away animals
because they simply don't have room for them. If you're interested
in trying to do something for these homeless animals and rescue
them from what in many cases amounts to "death row," then this book
can offer some advice on helping your local shelter and adopting or
fostering shelter pets. In addition, there are chapters on how to
keep your adopted pet safe and healthy and how to deal with sick or
injured pets, plus a few stories about actual dogs, cats and
parrots that my family and I have rescued. We all have many other
things to deal with besides animals in shelters. But if you or
anyone you know is thinking about getting a dog, cat or other
animal, please contact your local "city pound," animal shelter, or
special breed rescue group and take a look at some of these
homeless animals. If you're looking for a great companion, there
are so many of them there - lost, abandoned or unwanted - please
consider giving one of them a chance at a "forever home."
