Oklahoma City Shelter Smoke Screen

Here’s one that has been, I don’t know, annoying me for a while. Maybe I should preface this conversation with: The Oklahoma City Animal Shelter is run by power hungry, truth twisting, nitwits; better known as Politician Wannabee’s.

I am not directly involved in animal rescue, but I know several wonderful people who have dedicated their lives to finding homes for cast aside dogs and cats. Believe me, in Oklahoma this is a huge undertaking.

I don’t know that I can cover all the things wrong with the Oklahoma City Animal shelter in one easy to read post, so I’ll just hit a couple of items at a time. Let me start with the falsehood that Shelter Officials began to vomit to the press a couple of years ago. Oklahoma City is working towards becoming a ‘no kill’ shelter.
This is almost worthy of looking up on Snopes. That statement sounds great, and it would be commendable; if it were true.

If they wish to continue to advertise this falsehood, they should begin by telling their employees to keep their mouths shut. Let me illustrate:

An Oklahoma City Animal Shelter employee sends out an e-mail to a local rescue e-mail chain requesting help in rescuing several dogs and cats that are scheduled to be “put down”. For those that aren’t familiar with the term “put down”, it is nice speak for kill. Discarded pets are not “put down”, nor are they “put to sleep”, they are killed. In many cases, they are killed in manners that would get the average citizen arrested for cruelty, but that is another topic altogether.

Another posting from an Oklahoma City Animal Shelter employee has a photo of a very adoptable dog. Apparently, the dog was scheduled to be killed. Why? Extreme mats. Huh? The dog had some severe tangled hair! What? The poor pooch’s hair was matted!

That is right boys and girls; tangled hair is deadly, especially if you find your way to the Oklahoma City Animal Shelter. I am just so thankful that they are working toward becoming a “no kill shelter”.

Do they cut the feet off of animals if they have long nails?

These are just two examples of many that show just how hard theses nitwits are trying to become no kill. Are they really trying? You tell me.

More to come.
