Final City Council vote this Thursday, March 11th

by admin on March 8, 2010

Dear No Kill Coalition,
We have finally come to zero hour in our quest to make Austin a No Kill City. On Thursday, March 11th, at 10am at City Hall, City Council will vote to implement a Plan for many improvements to our City’s Animal Services and the community.

This plan will allow us to save all of the healthy and treatable animals that are currently dying at Town Lake Animal Center.

We need you to:

  1. Join the No Kill Coalition
  2. Send a letter to City Council
  3. Attend the meeting on March 11th (And even better – stand up and speak during Citizen’s Communication and tell the Council Members and Mayor that you believe Austin should be No Kill as fast as possible.)

In your letter, or if you speak at the meeting on Thursday, we hope you will:

  • Tell them that the lives of pets in Austin are not disposable and you support their decision to make Austin No Kill.
  • Encourage them to embrace Austin as a national leader in saving lives.
  • Remind them that nonprofits like Austin Pets Alive! are here with plans to help.

To save the rest of the lives, we need YOU to join us on Thursday, in person or via email prior to the meeting, to stand up and tell City Council that you are ready for Austin to finally stop killing pets NOW.

This is our one opportunity to stop the cycle and make Austin’s shelter safe for animals once and for all. The thousands of nameless Austin animals thank you for supporting No Kill.

Thank you to KXAN for the story on the vote.
