On Sunday, July 26, 2009 many radio stations and newspapersreported the following misleading statement suppliedby the New York City Animal Care & Control.
"This year AC&C has not had to euthanizeany healthy animals because of space"
1010WINS NYCACC Web site
On Tuesday, July 28, a scant two days after this remarkable statement hit NYC airwaves, and it's major newspapers, four healthy, adoptable animals were indeed killed for space at the AC&C. And many, many more healthy, adoptable animals have gone down for space this year before them!
To justify the unjustifiable, the current management of NYCAC routinely and blatantly lies to the press and to the public. It is the nature of their work and it is how they hold on to their jobs. They will tell you euthanasia is down in NYC, when it is way up nationwide. They will tell you animal intake is down in NYC, when it is way up nationwide.
To tell the public such outrageous lies is to tell them that the kill shelter is a safe place to take your pet when you can no longer afford to feed it.
The Executive Director of AC&C is up for renewal in October.
Are we ready for another two years of countless resignations and firings of hard-working, caring AC&C professionals? How many of AC&C's finest veterinarians have we watched resign in the past 20 months? Or have we lost count? And how much experience do the new Doctors have as AC&C per diems have been slashed by cost saving measures that more then predate the current economic slump?
It is time for NYC to return the caliber of professionalism it needs to run the largest municipal kill shelter system east of the Rockies. Someone like Mary Martin, the hugely popular, former Executive Director of AC&C, who made huge inroads during her tenure here. Surely there is someone out there that the Department of Health can find that actually comes with shelter and animal experience?
Please take a moment to sign this petition to remove the current Board of Directors of NYCACC. NYC needs humane professionals we can trust to care for its homeless animals!
