Any and all lovers of animlas !!! People that want to find A solution to this issue we have all around the world.Animal Shelters
Approximately 8-12 million companion animals enter animal shelters nationwide every year and approximately 5-9 million are euthanized (60% of dogs and 70% of cats). Shelter intakes are about evenly divided between those relinquished by owners and those picked up by animal control. These are national estimates; the percentage of euthanasia may vary from state to state.
Less than two percent of cats and only 15-20% of dogs are returned to their owners. Most of these were identified with tags, tattoos or microchips.
25% of dogs that enter local shelters are purebred.
Only 10% of the animals received by shelters have been spayed or neutered. 75% of owned pets are neutered.

Did you know that depending what state you are in ,that somesimes a cat/kitten only has 72 hours to find a home .There are 70,000 kittens and puppies born everyday in the Us.Even if every person in America adopted a pet today, there would still be thousands of animals without a home.Look on the Internet and you'll find numerous shelters advertising pets for adoption. "Homeless animals outnumber homeless people at least 5-to-1," says Bill Garrett, Executive Director of the Atlanta Humane Society and 28-year veteran of the humane organization. New shelters are being built and existing shelters are expanding to make room for these animals, but the proliferation of animal shelters is merely a symptom of a much larger problem shelters face. "A shelter is a box and the problem is outside the box," says Garrett. "Until people take responsibility for their animals by spaying, neutering and putting identification on their pets, there will always be a need for animal shelters."

• The average number of litters a fertile cat can produce is three a year; average number of kittens in litters is 4-6.• The average number of litters a fertile dog can produce is two a year; average number of puppies is 6-10.
• One female dog and her offspring can produce as many as 67,000 puppies in six years.
• One female cat and her offspring can produce as many as 420,000 kittens in seven years.
• It is impossible to determine how many stray dogs and cats live in the U.S.; estimates range from 5-10 million.

• Many strays are lost pets that were not housed properly or provided with identification.
