The feat was accomplished by having a 90 percent live release mark, but PETA said it 'spells disaster' for animals.
The Michigan Pet Fund Alliance announced that its state has achieved"No Kill" status for animal shelters after a stellar 2018 year when shelters statewide had live releases of at least 90 percent of its animals.
Schutt said the most challenging part has been trying to release healthy cats, as some communities in the state have experienced difficulty finding feline homes. Though 90 percent of pets have left Michigan animal shelters alive, cats have a tougher time finding homes.Michigan law requires shelters from around the state to provide annual reports to the Michigan Department of Agricultural & Rural Development, and MPFA has tracked these the last 10 years. Reports dating to 2009 show more than 120,000 cats and dogs lost their lives in shelters every year, and that number trimmed to just more than 13,000 for 2018.
