What with the global interest in this story I just hope it opens people's minds to the bigger picture of too many animals without enough homes and how mandatory affordable spay/neuter programs are. We all know how unjust it is that humane societies and pounds receive no gov't funding and depend on donations and fundraisers to survive so I recently put a suggestion to my local MP that every household have a mandatory $5.00 a year taken off their municipal taxes as a lump sum payment to their area spca with the sole purpose of funding spay/neuter programs. That would be a $2,500 donation from 500 households. Will see his response to this proposal.
