Somebody would have to clean the cage and put fresh food and water in there. On average, that could take *minutes* per pet. Now just add up all the pets in the shelter who would be kept for that extra day. Depending on the size of the shelter, that could mean, on any given day, an extra couple of hours worth of work. If shelter workers are *that* busy that they can't incorporate that time (divided amongst themselves) into their workday, I'll eat my hat. Alternately, maybe they could ask the community for volunteers to clean cages and put fresh food and water in with pets on their last day. Or any of a hundred other ways to make this work. Geez, they're not asking to keep them alive for an extra YEAR - it's just 24 hours. Reasonable people who care about pets can't find some way to make this happen? I would think they can.YesBiscuit!https://www.blogger.com/profile/13827466504671715047noreply@blogger.com
