No.1 Pet Killer

Do you know what the number one cause of dog and cat mortality around the world that kills more pets than any other animal related disease?

Euthanasia, or "putting to sleep" unwanted animals in numerous shelters around the world kills more animals than any other disease. In the United States alone, millions of dogs and cats are 'put to sleep' (estimated to be 3-10 million deaths) mainly because they were unwanted or because they have a behavioral problem.

To minimize the incidence of animals being euthanized in shelters,people should be educated about ethical breeding and to spay or neuter stray dogs and cats to curb the rising population of unwanted animals.
