Another month, another list of pets in need of adoption. We have made it a monthly ritual to visit the subreddit r/BeforeNAfterAdoption, and it’s really heartwarming to see that individuals continue to offer their homes and hearts to abandoned shelter animals who deserve a second shot.
According to the Best Friends Animal Society, 5.4 million cats and dogs visited US shelters in 2019. (52 percent of them were dogs and 48 percent were cats). Seventy-nine percent of the animals were saved. While the fact that 625,000 cats and dogs were killed hurts my heart, we’ve come a long way since 2014, when up to 4 million animals were slaughtered in American shelters and the national save rate was only 50%.
Yes, we can and should improve more. But these photographs show that we are making progress!
