Unfortunately, three years later, it looks like the Golden State still has a long way to go. According to a new report from Veterinarians.org, California is No. 2 in the country for number of dogs and cats that are euthanized at animal shelters, behind only Texas. More than 37,000 animals are killed in California in a given year, according to the report. To get that number, the website looked at animal shelter intake and outcome data from more than 3,200 shelters across the country. The numbers cited do not include the estimated 10% of shelter animals that are euthanized due to irreparable medical or behavioral issues. This year, the Legislature could reduce that number. Lawmakers are considering AB 595, which would institute a mandatory 72-hour wait period before a shelter can euthanize a dog or cat, during which they must provide online notice of their intent to euthanize.
