In this episode, Marni returns to her roots as a humane society professional and explains to Ted why the "No Kill" label adopted by many animal shelters is more complicated than you might think.
Some references from this conversation:
Consider the Lobster by David Foster Wallace
Why Euthanasia Rates at Animal Shelters have Plummeted
Support the your local humane society or municipal animal shelter. Marni knows great local organizations all over the country, feel free to email with questions about finding a reputable organization.
Let your elected officials know that you want them to support animal-friendly housing to keep more pets in their homes.
