No one looked into the future to see the horrible result. People should have looked to the past, to Maricopa animal control. Boks did the same thing there, with the same result. I guess Boks hoped that the refused kittens would be killed by coyotes, dogs, dogs or mean kids. Enough survived to procreate. <BR/><BR/>I would rather euthanize a neonate kitten today than eight neonate kittens in six months. Boks did this just to make his numbers look good. Now he can blame the kittens on foreclosures. How come no other shelters have seen these similar huge increases in kittens? They've seen increases in large dog intake only. <BR/><BR/>Also note that puppy intake is down, because they didn't refuse puppies. Notice that adult cat intake is flat. Boks rationalization for the huge increase in kittens does not compute.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
