We saw this post http://thenokillnationblog.wordpress.com/2011/09/21/could-texas-be-the-first-no-kill-state/#comment-67 about all the progress being made in the no-kill movement in Texas, which is already showing very high save rates in major cities. It is pretty fascinating to see how quickly the movement is gaining steam. The more evidence that shows it can be done, the more communities will adopt it- this should follow the classic S curve. The issue is that a no-kill nation will never be possible until we make more progress on spaying and neutering, but hopefully we will get there on the spay and neuter side as well. More dogs and cats than humans are born every day so mathematically this needs to change for the population of pets and homes who want them to balance. The good news is that every day the imbalance is improving thanks to the hard work of the many animal advocates out there.
Might Texas be the first no-kill state?
