There was a nice article about a no kill shelter in Richmond, BC in the Vancouver Sun today. I think it's great but I dont know if many people are aware of these shelters. Most of us would probably go to the SPCA to adopt. I think it's really wonderful that they had the article in the paper b/c it makes more people aware that there are lots of other non-profit organizations that rescue unwanted animals. I had no idea that there were no kill shelters in the lower mainland until I read about it today. Usually the SPCA branches are quite small and dont have too much variety so when people dont see any particular cat that they like, they tend to resort to pet stores or people who just sell animals to make a profit. So I hope they can get the word out to more people.

House of Mews in Memphis, TN is a no kill shelter
http://www.houseofmews.com/ I couldn't find anything on their website that specificallly said they were no-kill, but one of their policies says: Discourage euthanasia of healthy animals. I'll see if I can find out for sure that they are definately no-kill, but I'm about 99% sure they are.

Woah! I didn't think it was possible for a shelter like that! That's so cool!
These are unfortunatly, not mine. They were on that shelter page. On the "Utah" link. I was just looking around, and found that picture. So I decided to show it to you.

I'm not sure what happens over here in the UK but I know many of the shelters etc over here are either charities or run by cat lovers... Here is a good page to find your nearest one in the UK
