Adopt a Cat June 2007


49,557

That’s how many animals were destroyed in Hillsborough,
Pinellas and Pasco Counties last year.
29,872 were in Hillsborough County alone.*

*Statistics provided by the ASPCA


June is designated as Adopt a Shelter Cat Month, but adoptions are not limited to cats alone. Dogs and other shelter animals are in need every day. For pet owners who can make room for one more or others who can give to their resources or time, this is a reminder of what a difference one person can make. And helping animals it not just an issue of making homes or providing shelter. Animal protection organizations strive to educate the public about animal care and population control. Spaying, neutering and proper care can make a difference for thousands of animals and help to relieve the overload, expense and tragedy of animal destruction in shelters.
