This document discusses companion animal cruelty, including definitions, types (passive vs. active), statistics, impacts, penalties in Ohio, and ways to help. It defines cruelty as inflicting unnecessary pain/suffering and notes examples of passive (neglect) and active (deliberate harm) cruelty. Statistics show dogs are most commonly abused. Cruelty negatively impacts animal welfare and society. Ohio revised laws in 2010 to classify cruelty as a misdemeanor with maximum 90 days jail and $750 fine. The document encourages donating to help animals and prevent further cruelty.
The document discusses pet overpopulation and euthanasia. It provides statistics showing that millions of cats and dogs are entering animal shelters each year, with millions being euthanized due to overcrowding. Contributing factors to overpopulation include owner neglect, abandonment, lack of spaying/neutering, and irresponsible breeding. Efforts to address overpopulation include low-cost spay/neuter programs, various contraceptive methods, and legislation in some areas requiring adoption animals be altered. No-kill shelters aim to adopt out animals rather than euthanize those deemed treatable or manageable.
Each year millions of animals enter shelters but there is not enough space, resulting in millions being euthanized, while only a small portion get adopted. Too many homeless pets exist compared to shelter capacity. People should consider adoption over purchase to help save animal lives.
The document discusses animal rights and the treatment of animals in various contexts such as zoos, farms, laboratories, and the work of PETA to promote ethical treatment. It notes that over 5 million animals are kept in zoos worldwide, while millions more are used for experimentation each year, including over 25 million mice, rats, fish and birds. PETA advocates for animal freedom and ethical treatment, focusing on issues like captive animals, laboratory testing, and celebrity supporters who help spread awareness of their cause.
ASPCA Rescues Animals from Puppy Mill in AlabamaDavid Kiger
The ASPCA shut down a large puppy mill in Needham, Alabama that was maintaining substandard conditions for over 130 dogs of various breeds. The dogs were found living in filthy conditions and many were malnourished and had medical issues. The rescued dogs received medical care and behavioral training to prepare them for adoption, and will now be divided among shelters in 11 states in an effort to find them permanent homes.
The Alachua County Humane Society is requesting donations to help fund sterilization programs to prevent animal overpopulation. While nationwide efforts have made progress, many treatable animals continue to be euthanized. The humane society and community need help to address this issue and prevent unnecessary euthanization of animals.

Enhancing Research Visibility and Improving Citations: Publication Marketing ...Nader Ale Ebrahim
Publishing a high quality paper in scientific journals is only the mid point towards receiving citation in the future. The balance of the journey is completed by advertising and disseminating the publications by using the proper “Research Tools”. Familiarity with the tools allows the researchers to increase their h-index in a short time. H-index shows the academicians influence in the specified field of research. Therefore, an academician with a higher level of h-index is deemed to have publications of higher quality resulting in higher citations.
The number of citations contributes to over 30% in the university rankings. Therefore, most of the scientists are looking for an effective method to increase their citation record. Nader has developed and introduced a method for increasing the visibility of the research which directly affects on the number of citations.
PETA Position on Free Roaming Cats, Animal Control and Cat LicensingHVCClibrary
PETA supports amending New York state law to require cat licensing and encourages responsible cat ownership. Licensing cats would help address public health issues like rabies, protect wildlife from cats allowed to roam, and enhance animal welfare by reuniting lost cats with owners and funding low-cost spay/neuter programs. Several cities that implemented cat licensing report increased reunification of lost cats and decreased animal homelessness and euthanasia. Requiring cat licensing is intended to prevent problems for taxpayers in the same way laws require dog licensing, auto insurance, and school enrollment.
This document analyzes statistics from the ASPCA website comparing outcomes for dogs and cats in animal shelters. On average, 3.9 million dogs and 3.4 million cats enter shelters annually. Dogs have higher adoption (1.4 million) and return to owner (542,000) rates than cats, which have higher euthanasia rates (1.4 million cats vs 1.2 million dogs euthanized). A slightly higher percentage of cats (37%) than dogs (35%) are adopted, while more cats (41%) than dogs (31%) are euthanized. The author suggests cats may face worse outcomes due to perceptions of them being less affectionate than dogs.

The ASPCA is the first humane society established in North America in 1866 to prevent cruelty to animals. It aims to provide shelters and care for homeless animals, spread knowledge about animal cruelty through events, and be a voice for animals. Its overall goal is to increase live release rates from shelters through programs like increasing spay/neuter resources and adoption programs. The ASPCA responds to cases of animal cruelty and provides relief services to domestic animals during disasters.
The document provides 20 statistics about the pet industry in the United States. Some key facts include: Americans own 70-80 million dogs and 74-96 million cats. Pet owners will spend over $11,000 per pet during its lifetime. Pet sales in the US were $55.72 billion in 2013 and are estimated to be $73 billion in 2014. Veterinary care spending was $14.37 billion in 2013.
The Buddy Cooler is a new product idea created by a couple in Jacksonville, Florida to make enjoying the outdoors easier for both people and their pets. Their product combines a cooler with retractable food and water bowls, allowing pet owners to take their dogs on trips without having to carry extra bowls or food. The couple developed the idea after living out of their truck with their dog and needing an all-in-one feeding solution. They are seeking $150,000 in funding for prototyping and patenting. The pet market is large and growing, with over $55 billion expected to be spent in 2013 in the U.S. alone, demonstrating potential for their product.

PETA supports a proposed ordinance in Ulster, NY to control cats. The organization argues that outdoor cats harm wildlife and that laws requiring cats be spayed/neutered and kept indoors protect both cats and wildlife. Such ordinances have been passed in other NY communities and cities elsewhere report benefits like increased licensing revenue and fewer cats euthanized. PETA urges the Ulster board to pass the proposed ordinance.
This document discusses man's relationship with dogs and efforts to help shelter dogs. It provides statistics on dog ownership and costs, describes various dog breeds and their purposes. It also highlights the problem of pet overpopulation and discusses several local animal shelters and low-cost veterinary services that aim to reduce euthanasia of dogs through spay/neuter programs and adoption promotion. The document encourages readers to help by volunteering, donating or adopting shelter dogs.
This document discusses the issue of puppy mills and canine trafficking. It outlines how puppy mills subject dogs to inhumane conditions like overbreeding, lack of veterinary care, and living in filthy, crowded cages. Several bills and laws have attempted to regulate puppy mills and define them, but they still have loopholes and lack proper enforcement. More comprehensive national laws and regulations are still needed to properly address this problem and prevent the inhumane treatment of dogs in puppy mills.
This document discusses breed specific legislation (BSL) which aims to eradicate or regulate certain dog breeds based solely on their breed. It provides background on the history of BSL, including how certain breeds like pit bulls gained a reputation as dangerous in the media despite once being seen as family pets. It examines examples of BSL restrictions and debates the effectiveness of BSL, finding little evidence it reduces dog bites but that it negatively impacts responsible owners. The document advocates for alternatives to BSL like stronger owner responsibility laws and education programs instead of targeting breeds.

Walkzee allows shelters to upload profiles of dogs available for walks. Dog lovers can then browse the site, request walks, and share their positive experiences which helps drive more engagement and adoptions. The goal is to reframe volunteering as a fun experience that can be easily shared online in order to attract more of the millions of dog lovers who are not currently helping shelters.
Speech Title Adopt More PetsGeneral Purpose To PersuadeSpe.docxwhitneyleman54422
Speech Title: Adopt More Pets
General Purpose: To Persuade
Specific Purpose: I want to persuade my audience to get participate in adopting pets from animal shelters.
I. Gain Attention: One day, a friend sent me a WhatsApp video clip link of the “Baby’s Day Out” video in which the baby is taken in and guarded by a gorilla, but after the video ended, YouTube auto-played another video of the vise versa happening—a young girl who had adopted a dog, cared for it, played with it, and snuggled with it. The video exhumed so much emotion and the girl’s voice urging people to help and adopt abandoned dogs from animal shelters was also very emotive and convincing. This was the first time I got to think deeply about animal adoption and to even research more about it.
A. Pet abandonment is a big problem all over the world caused by inadvertent or deliberate casting off of exotic pets and companion animals by owners or desolation when owners die. From the moment of abandonment to ending up at the shelter, the probability of emerging alive are minimal—as most have their lives forcefully ended or remain alone and unloved.
B. Today I would like to talk to you about what you can do to help make a difference in keeping pets alive. I can actually guarantee that every one of us can do something in caring for and adopting for abandoned pets. The main thing I will talk about today is the reasons why each one of us should at least adopt a pet from an animal shelter. There is a lot of information regarding this, especially from the humanesociety.org website that enlightens the reader about the number of pets in shelters country wide, reasons to and how to adopt them.
Transition 1 – According to the Humane Society of the United States, about 7.6 million companion animals are placed in abandoned animal shelters nationally every year. About 3.9 million of those animals are dogs while about 3.4 million are cats. In addition, every year, about 2.7 million dogs and cats are killed because the shelters are full and there the adoptive homes and individuals are very few.
II. Need/Problem
A. Every year, 2.7 million dogs and cats awaiting adoption are euthanized in the US, simply because there are too many pets into shelters and very few people willing to adopt a pet.
B. Research shows that just 10% of the animals that animal shelters receive have been sterilized or neutered. This causes animal overpopulation, because owners are letting their pets to intentionally or accidentally reproduce. As a result, millions of animals cannot find space in the shelters or foster homes and hence, they have to be killed every year.
C. The National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy (NCPPSP), reports that less than 2% of cats and only about 15% of dogs found and kept in pet shelters are returned to their owners. This means that most of these pets remain in the shelters, and with so few people adopting, they end up being killed to make room for more.
Transition 2 – According to A.
This document provides an overview of cat ownership trends in the United States. It finds that while 60% of U.S. households do not own a cat, young men aged 18-24 represent the most likely future cat owners. Additionally, the growing Hispanic population may increase cat ownership due to strong human-animal bonds. However, cat intake and euthanasia rates are rising in shelters nationwide. Budget cuts are reducing animal control services and more cats are surrendered than dogs, indicating problems with the number of homeless and feral cats in communities across the country.
Animal shelters play an important role in communities by caring for abandoned and surrendered pets. While some people oppose shelters, they have helped reduce euthanasia rates and connect pets with homes. Shelters educate the public on issues like overpopulation and puppy mills. Adopting pets helps save lives, provides companionship, and avoids supporting industries that neglect animal welfare. Properly caring for adopted pets ensures they live long, happy lives in their new homes.
The Feral Cat Population Explosion - December 2010HVCClibrary
The feral cat population is growing rapidly in the United States, with an estimated 70 million stray cats comprising 15% of all cats. Animal shelters are overwhelmed and euthanize approximately 75% of the millions of cats received each year due to lack of available homes. Feral cats are a major contributor to the overpopulation problem as most kittens are born to feral mothers and 82% of kittens born are to feral cats. Early spaying/neutering is key to reducing the population growth, but currently less than 3% of feral cats are sterilized compared to 82% of household cats. The large numbers of unwanted cats strains resources and strong views exist on how to humanely address

According to the ASPCA “There are about 13,600 community animal shelters
nationwide that are independent; there is no national organization monitoring
these shelters. The terms “humane society” and “SPCA” are generic; shelters using
