Go No Kill - Adopting No-Kill Policies Within Shelters



To Whom It May Concern;

   We as a compassionate society are writing to you in hopes that we can request everyone to please support and urge kill shelters to fully adopt no-kill policies in order to give full second chances for innocent lives in need.

    Although there are a countless number of no-kill shelters within our society today, there are still many others that still proceed with the extreme measures of euthanizing healthy and treatable life for the mere reasons that forever and homes and families cannot be found within certain time periods (stemming from one week to one month, depending on the space and policies), as well as the over-crowding and lack of space of facilities.

    It is our belief and within our opinion, that we can make a difference and have these kill shelters adopt no-kill policies and find adequate and humane methods in order to deal with situations that they find themselves in without using such inhumane strategies.  It is also with this belief that we feel that with enough backing, voices and support, we can truly reach this goal.

   Euthanasia should not/nor ever be used as a "solution" to over-crowded shelters, or for our innocent voiceless who have been over-looked and unable to find suitable and loving homes, especially since there are other alternative solutions that are present.

    With the support of individuals, like yourselves, we can not just encourage kill-shelters to follow in the same footsteps as other shelters, but also reach out and spread the imperative message that will also play an active role in making the changes necessary in the process of saving and protecting the innocent lives that find themselves within these facilities.

WHAT WE CAN DO:


  • Reaching out to politicians and municipalities and request support, and encourage their voices in helping urge kill-shelters to change their policies.
  • Spreading awareness on the importance of spaying and neutering, which will help decrease animal over-population.
  • Educating on the importance of responsible pet ownership 
  • Urging such shelters to establish and maintain screening of potential adopters, to decrease the amount of animals who have been relinquished, abused, neglected, abandoned etc.
  • To encourage and urging re-training and rehabilitation of animals which may have behavioral problems (which can be achieved through much dedication and determination by caring and compassionate volunteer or staff members)
  • Raising awareness and promoting adoption and fostering instead of buying.
  • Relocating animals from "kill-shelters" to "no-kill shelters" 
  • Working at coming up with ways to gain funding so that kill-shelters can be provided with the necessary aspects so that they can change to no-kill.
  • Urging our municipalities and political figures to play their active roles in helping save/protect innocent sheltered life by making changes to laws so that euthanasia is unacceptable: unless the animal is suffering or terminally ill, and no medical treatment or methods can save them. 

 PLEASE JOIN US IN SUPPORTING "NO-KILL" and let's unite as one and raise ur paw to make this dream a reality... we can make this happen, and with a compassionate and dedicated network of individuals we can truly make "kill-shelters" places of the past and bring forth a new hope in humanity in the fight to protect and save innocent lives in need.

Stop Trophy Hunt Auction: Open Letter To President Donald Trump

Dear President Donald Trump;

   As a member and compassionate individual in society I have always believed in the rights of the
innocent and the protection/safety of such life as well --- and along with this belief, I also hold the hope that we all can come together as one united force to make the world a more kinder and compassionate residence for not only humanity, but for all innocent lives and species as well.

    It is with this hope that we are reaching out to you, not just as a newly appointed President of the United States, but as an individual who has made the statement "Let's Make America Great Again!" and request that you urge your sons, Eric and Donald Trump Jr, to please Not go ahead and proceed with the trophy hunt auction in which they are planning to hold one day after your inauguration at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center according to reports.

Link To Article: http://www.commondreams.org/news/2016/12/19/trump-sons-auctioning-first-family-hunting-trip-500000-report

    We truly acknowledge and understand that as an appointed President that there is much on your plate and imperative issues that needs attention... but it is this action in which your heirs are participating in and coordinating that is another issue within the eyes of society, trophy hunting ( a deemed sport that is not tradition but a travesty of conservation) --- and such actions of capitalizing off the lives of the innocent is truly inappropriate and unacceptable way to celebrate an individual, like yourself, ascending into the role of the "power of the people!"

    This is your opportunity to play a significant role in making a stand for our innocent voiceless, to be a positive role-model and figure who is not just a voice for humanity, but for all species --- and with that voice make a positive statement that "all innocent life matters" and must be treated with respect, compassion, care and humanely for the purpose of creating a better world and future --- not just for us, but for all species and future generations to come.

We thank you so much for your time, and hope that this open letter finds its way to you.

   Many of us are already aware of the importance humane education is within the lives of our youth --- and how such education can be a leadership skill to establishing the impacts and differences needed for fostering a more kinder and compassionate world and future.  But even though such knowledge is of great importance and necessary... educational facilities and curriculum still does not provide this imperative learning experience to our youths and future generations.... and that desperately needs to change.

   That is why, along with our efforts to raise awareness on the issues in which our innocent animals face and endure on a daily basis, that we are reaching out and hoping to establish and bring H.E.L.P (Humane Education Learning Programs) to the table in order to support and help our youths fulfill their potential in being positive role-models & action takers by providing them with age-appropriate education, resources, materials and empowerment.

CAMOUFLAGE & CUFFLINKS: OUR OPINION

As an individual of society, my support when it comes to politics and to those who are or will be brought into power as leaders, has always been to those who are about making positive changes and differences in order to make impacts and improvements in this world we live in... and upon the lives and well-being of all species of innocent life, not just humanity.

  In recent reports it was brought to the world's attention the fact that Donald Trump's sons, Donald Jr. and Eric Trump, hunting enthusiasts, will be ringing in their father's ascent into power by holding a fundraiser and party which would include the opportunity to trophy hunt.. from wild turkey, grizzly bear, and even bald eagle!

CHECK OUT THE LINK HERE ---> http://www.commondreams.org/news/2016/12/19/trump-sons-auctioning-first-family-hunting-trip-500000-report

  Such actions and displays as this, is by far so unacceptable and inappropriate for a celebration of an individual who is ascending into power of the people, such as president. This role is suppose to be an empowering position that many view as a leader and defender of the lives and welfare of species, and a positive and reflective role-model for the bettering of our world and future. 

     In my honest opinion, I for one am truly disgusted and disgraced that individuals -- NO matter who they are, would take this role or aspects around this role of greatness, and abuse it in a manner to excuse and/or take opportunity to capitalize from the inhumanity and cruelty of taking an innocent life, such as the unjustifiable trophy hunt.

    What I believe needs to be done is for the President to first-hand "nip this in the butt" and show voting individuals that this form of "conservation", as many would describe it, is not the way that we protect and save innocent species from extinction --- and with that urge or demand his heirs to withdraw from hosting such a brutal event , and to lean further on other humane forms or strategies of conservation.

     Only we as humanity can truly make a difference and change, but we need to unite as one powerful force to make that goal a reality for ourselves, the world and future.... Raise Ur Paw Today!

OUR HUMAN EDUCATION LEARNING PROGRAM'S MISSION:

We at Raise Ur Paw would like to introduce the idea and future development of our H.E.L.P (Humane Education Learning Programs).

    Our H.E.L.P was created by our not-for-profit incorporation, RAISE UR PAW CA9102493 with the mission to bring upon the fostering of compassion and respect for all living beings and the environment through educational lessons and resources for youths and educators within educational institutes and facilities.

    Such educational services and resources are specially designed to provide a combination of focus points such as building awareness, sharing knowledge and resources, animal protection, responsibilities, environmental preservation and encouraging and empowering the involvement of youth of all ages.

(Only a few days remaining to support this pawsome campaign)


   With our advocacy efforts and our strong aims and goals, we are hoping to directly present our humane educational learning programs and services to educators and students in hopes of establishing and forming impacts upon our young individuals and their development.

Such Goals and Aims That We Hope To Achieve:


  • Raising awareness and education on current animal welfare issues, along with promoting kinder and compassionate choices in order for our youths to play their active roles and parts for our voiceless, and the world in which we reside in.
  • Gaining support, empathy and empowerment to create a world of acceptance and compassion towards animals of all species and using such skills to be positive role-models and action takers.
  • To establish and encourage involvement from youths and those around them (family and friends) and participate in the efforts that is imperative in the fostering of a kinder and compassionate world and future.

    These programs will be designed and linked to age-appropriate instruction, materials and resources and will provide students/educators with the necessary tools to make positive changes and differences, role-models, lifestyle decisions and informative teaching that they can carry with them as they journey into the future.

    We believe that our programs are not only imperative, but essential in the development of young minds for a kinder and more compassionate world and future --- and that such an introduction of important lessons within the education curriculum is a step in the right direction.

     We are truly hoping that each and every animal angel and individual of the world will take this opportunity to support and take part in such a positive and life-changing experience....


" When educating the minds of our youth, we must not forget to educate their hearts"
