#no-kill shelters

[unbfacts]

In Germany, it is illegal to kill any vertebrate animal without a valid reason, such as illness or posing a danger to humans. As a result, all animal shelters in the country operate as no-kill facilities.

annual post telling people to stop slandering “kill shelters” as if they want to euthanize healthy animals. stop believing the evil kill shelter narrative and instead consider how bad it would be for the animals if we had no open intake shelters.

DPXDC Prompt #90

Jason was frustrated with life, of course he was a revenant without a way to get revenge with Bruce’s no kill rule. Doesn’t say he can’t get others to kill for him, so when he gets captured by cultists he decides to take a leap of faith and make his wish to the Ghost King before the cultists can make their stupid wish about world domination or something.

The Ghost King accepts but wants a favor from him, what Jason wasn’t expecting was a kid with black hair blue eyes about 14, showing up on his doorstep saying he needed a place to crash and this was the ghost kings favor. Jason gets a message from his family just then, the Joker is confirmed dead. He doesn’t know why the Ghost King wants him to take care of a random teen but a deal is a deal.

“Kill shelters” are the shelters you need to donate to.

“But shrimp!! Kill shelters are evil!!”

No, shut up, listen to me for a second.

“Kill shelter” is a colloquial term used primarily for Town/City (aka municipal) shelters that rely on incredibly limited government grant funding to operate.

These shelters, by the very nature of their existence, DO NOT HAVE the funds to operate like private rescues do.

On top of this, they’re also *legally required* to take in ANY animal that comes to them. Even if they’re full. Or they’ll lose all of their funding.

This is what leads them to needing to euthanize for space. Is euthanizing for space sad? Yes. But due to the current crisis, it’s also NECESSARY.

These shelters are constantly overfull. They’re STRUGGLING. They don’t have the funds to operate properly. And yet these municipal, government funded, struggling shelters are the same ones that are most likely to be providing care for owned animals in the community

Municipal (“kill”) shelters are the ones hosting low cost spay and neuter clinics. They’re the ones discounting vaccination appointments and microchipping. They’re the ones that have pet food banks so struggling pet owners can feed their pets that week.

These shelters are not evil. They’re doing the absolute best they can with the bare minimum funding they get.

These people are incredibly resourceful and care very deeply about the animals in their care. It breaks their heart every time they have to euthanize an animal that couldn’t get adopted.

These underfunded shelters need your money significantly more than that fancy private rescue you see on TikTok or instagram that has a beautiful facility and has never had to euthanize an animal ever.

Support your local shelters and they will give back to the community thousand fold.

Sincerely, an animal welfare student who’s tired of seeing the hardest working professionals shat on because of circumstances they can’t control.

“Cuántas ciudad,

cuántas sed, y tú, un hombre solo.”

On a night where Mr. Bitches jet withdrawals are in full swing, he and boone have another heart to heart. Boone's a tough cookie to crack, but Mr. B knows he has a heart. Or whatever it is that gives Boone the strength to put up with his antics.

Mr B thinks Boone's just the greatest thing since sliced bread. Boone seems reluctant to agree or even comment on the matter.

He wonders why.

If you are looking to adopt an animal, I think you would be interested in looking at a no-kill animal shelter.

They do wonders and take care of their animals better than most places I have gotten the chance to visit. They offer helpful service, have a great selection of food that is healthy for the animals to have, and a lot of their work is revolved around charity.

This is the devastating reality in gaza.

Even if children don't lose their lives during the bombing, they lose their limbs, their loved ones. You know how many kids who lost their legs loved playing football? How many loved to run and walk and ride a bike? How many lost their arms who can no longer feel it, no longer wear a bracelet around their wrist? There are kids who lost their eyesight due to the bombing And getting crushed under the rubble. Keep demanding a ceasefire, this should not still be happening. 44th day.

Tears gather at your eyelids. Your head pounds as Isidora vies for control, as her consciousness gathers in your fingertips and singes your toes. Each limb succumbs to the weight of her, digging a sharp-nailed grasp into your organs like they’re no more than slabs of meat in a butcher’s hands. Sebastian moves with the fierceness of a predator approaching prey. He hauls you up and slams you bodily to the wall, and closes the gap so your noses are almost touching. The finest hairs on your skin can detect his breath, making you shudder. “Fight her,” he demands, lethally quiet. “Get her out of your head.”

Blistering hot take that the capitalists will HATE but studio rents should be fixed at no more than 1/3 of a full-time minimum wage income.

If people can't even afford a fucking studio apartment working full time on minimum wage then what's the point of anything??? Literally what are we doing here???
