I understand both sides! Unfortunately many of the "Kill" animal shelters do so because of the volume of animals they house. The Humane Society in my city has close to 450 animals, and kitten season has only started, so you can imagine that number is going to soar in the next few months!!!
No one likes to euthanize, not even the vets! However, due to increase in disease, the more animals are sheltered together, and the lack of room and money to house these animals and support the staff, which by the way is always lacking due to the emotionally draining environment, it's a unfortunate necessity.

However, thank goodness there are many caring animal lovers that continue to support shelters, adopt, foster, etc.
The "Kill" shelters are and do keep tabs with the "No Kill" shelters to transfer animals to them when they have room for an even better chance.

Please do not turn your back on the "Kill" shelters, because the more people adopt, the less animals will be facing possible euthanasia! :)

MOST IMPORTANT: Please Spay and Neuter, it would make a huge difference!!!
