There are many ways to answer that question.
A day is 24 hours. A day is how we measure how much time we spend at work. A day can be something we look forward to, a celebration of some kind. But in U.S. animal shelters, a day represents 10,411 lives needlessly lost.
To most people, June 11 is Just One Day. But, June 11 is a day that could change everything for 10,411 companion animals, and a day that can change the world. On June 11, 2012, we could be a No Kill nation.
We are asking animal shelters across the USA to take a pledge not to
kill any savable animals on June 11, 2012. For Just One Day, "Euthanasia
Technicians" will put down their syringes and pick up cameras. Instead
of injecting animals with lethal doses of sodium pentobarbital, they
will photograph them and post them on the Internet, on Facebook, on
twitter. On June 11, 2012, they will market their animals to the public,
they will reach out to rescue groups, they will host adoption events
with discounted rates, they will stay open for extended hours, and they
will ask their communities to help them empty the shelter the good way.Instead of going into body bags in freezers, the animals will go out the front door in the loving arms of families. At the end of the day, the shelters will be emptier than when the day started. And, no one will have had to die in order to make that happen. To help them succeed, the No Kill Advocacy Center, Animal Ark and Animal Wise Radio are teaming up to offer shelters the tools they need to be successful.
