In the past we have talked about shelters that call themselves NO KILL but as soon as the cat tests pos for FeLV it is KILLED.... I think we have just had such a case here in Mass.... It appears that a rescue went to pull a cat and get it on a transport to an adopter... The cat then tested pos. The rescue put a cry for help at 5:30 the end of the day... Later that evening I replied and said I could help.... Next thing I heard was that the cat had been PTS and rescue wasn't going to say any more.... Sounds like the OLD SCHOOL still lives where when a cat tests pos he is immediately PTS.... Tad

they owe much of their ability to have a different attitude toward dumping to the fact that they have an enormous amount of land, they're out in the middle of nowhere so that they don't have folks just driving by every day, that they started out with a much-larger-than-usual core group of dedicated, committed people, and they have a very large group of volunteers. many smaller places have few if any of those attributes.
