Animal Advocates Watchdog

Are kennel cough or cat colds enough to put an animal on the SPCA's "euth" list? *LINK*

I really can't believe that the BC SPCA "euthanizes" for the same reasons as other groups or facilities that claim to be "no-kill", as Mr. Daniell states. It would be interesting to see a list that justifies the SPCA to kill the "unadoptable." I wonder if space, cost, treatable illness or age are factors in making the determination? Could it be that kennel cough or cat colds are excuse enough? Perhaps somebody from the SPCA can say whether such trivial explanations are being used to defend its actions.

I know Rabbit Advocacy values each and every life and that we have saved many a rabbit from death by the SPCA.
