Declaration of the No Kill Movement in the United States
Declaration of the No Kill Movement in the United States
This year, some four million dogs and cats will be killed in shelters. The vast majority can and should be placed into loving homes or should never enter shelters in the first place. But there is hope.
No Kill sheltering models, based on innovative, non-lethal programs and services, have already saved the lives of tens of thousands of animals. But instead of embracing No Kill, many shelters—and their national agency allies—cling to their failed models of the past, models that result in the killing of millions of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters every year.
No Kill is a revolution. And behind every revolution is a declaration—a statement of grievances, and a listing of rights and principles that underscore our great hope for the future. We assert that a No Kill nation is within our reach—that the killing can and should be brought to an end. Join us in endorsing The Declaration of the No Kill Movement in the United States.The Declaration of the No Kill Movement in the United States.

End companion animal killing & cruelty
Please help to stop the breeding of companion animals, "pets." There are too many cats and dogs! It's simply not right to kill companion animals - just for more choices Adopt an animal already born!
HARSH realities of being a pet/companion animal:
~If you are specially selected in time you MIGHT live. If you are extra you MIGHT die, nothing secures your safety!~

Adopt, foster, volunteer, donate to help animals in shelters -- Be an active advocate for all animals, stand-up for their rights! ♥

HBO: Death on a Family Farm - Synopsis
Each year, ten billion animals are raised for consumption in the U.S., mostly on sprawling, industrialized farms, where virtually no federal laws mandate how the animals are treated - though guidelines exist - and state laws are ineffective. As a result, animals are frequently subjected to what many consider cruel treatment and inhumane conditions in the interest of economic efficiency. DEATH ON A FACTORY FARM chronicles an investigation into alleged abuses that took place at a hog farm in Creston, Ohio. This shocking documentary is produced by Tom Simon (a seven-time Emmy® winner) and Sarah Teale, producer of the 2006 HBO special "Dealing Dogs," which received two Emmy® nominations, including Best Documentary.

Feeding Your Cat - Know the Basics Of Feline Nutrition
Feeding Your Cat - Know the Basics Of Feline Nutrition
Diet is the brick and mortar of health. This web page lays out some often-ignored principles of feline nutrition and explains why cats have a better chance at optimal health if they are fed a quality canned food diet instead of dry kibble. Putting a little thought into what you feed your cat(s) can pay big dividends over their lifetime and very possibly help them avoid serious, painful and costly illnesses. An increasing number of American Veterinary Medical Association members, including board-certified veterinary internists, are now strongly recommending the feeding of canned food instead of dry kibble.

Europeans Limit Seal Imports, as Canadian Officials Protest - NYTimes.com
Europeans Limit Seal Imports, as Canadian Officials Protest - NYTimes.com
In a blunt challenge to Canada and thousands of Canadian seal hunters, the European Parliament voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to ban the importing or sale of furs and other products from commercially harvested seals.
A seal hunter dragged a harp seal carcass on an ice pan off the coast of Cape Breton island, Nova Scotia, last year.

Andrew C. Revkin blogs about climate and sustainability. Join the discussion.
The ban would mainly affect Canada, where the government has allowed several hundred thousand young harp seals to be killed each year by commercial and traditional hunters on sea ice cloaking eastern and Arctic waters.
