PETA Warns of Cat Overpopulation Crisis and Offers Solutions

Michelle Fern on Pet Life Radio

Most people love their dogs, yet it is estimated that more than 6 million cats and dogs enter U.S. shelters every year. That staggering statistic isn’t likely to change until we stop these animals from producing more litters than there are home to go around, when other, equally wonderful cats are already here, in shelters, hoping someone will take them home.

Lisa Lange, senior vice president of communications for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) will discuss the importance of addressing the pressing overpopulation crisis and share what steps can be taken to improve the quality of life for the animals who improve ours.
