LETTERA APERTA AL DOTT. SCOTT M. STRINGER NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER

OPEN LETTER SCOTT M. STRINGER, NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER (ENGLISH VERSION) "THE GREATNESS AND MORAL PROGRESS OF A NATION CAN BE JUDGED BY THE MANNER IN WHICH IT TREATS ITS ANIMALS" -- Mahatma Gandhi "In municipal shelters in New York each year are put to death by lethal injection and often without anesthesia 8000 pets, including dogs and cats only guilty of not having a master or were abandoned. Help us to stop this massacre. Sign our letter/petition". OPEN LETTER TO DR. SCOTT M. STRINGER, NEW YORK CITY COMPTROLLER We are a group of Italian volunteers, who for some years follows the fate of american dogs and cats without a master and is trying to get to know the world this sad reality with the hope of contributing to change. https://www.facebook.com/groups/angelika.izzo/ We turn to you, Dr. Stringer because we know that like us takes to heart the fate of animals put to death unjustly in the city of New York. We know that he is currently working on difficult reform of the system of shelter AC&C, such as promised by the mayor De Blasio in electoral campaign, and we want to express our full support and make them feel our attentive presence through this letter/petition. We believe that New York, the city symbol of justice and freedom for the whole world can and must be a symbol also of the welfare of animals. As you well know, in the last year the killing of animals are increased, especially those of cats. The numbers are really impressive and it is not possible to continue to assist to this massacre that is hidden under the false name of "euthanasia". We know that agrees with us on these points: - it is not "human" to allow the killing of a healthy animal, ONLY because STRAY - is not "human" to allow the killing of a healthy animal, ONLY because it is aggressively - is not "human" to allow the killing of a healthy animal, ONLY because ELDER - is not "human" to allow the killing of an animal, only because it HAS A COLD - is not "human" to allow the killing of an animal, ONLY because he is HILL we totally agree with the policy you have explained in the report 'Led Astray that's being serialized right now", and believe that it is absolutely urgent to start the financial restructuring of AC&C and the construction of the refuges to full service in the Bronx and Queens, as you recommended. We hope that within a short space of time we may arrive at a better use of financial resources allocated to the care of the animals, better veterinary care of the animals guests of shelter, with an increase in the adoptions, even outside the tri-area, increase in sterilizations including those in the territory and you can finally take, as in other American cities, for example San Francisco, a political no-kill. Let us entrust to YOU our "American dream" and wish you good work Signature "WHY SAVE THEIR LIVES … IT MUST BE POSSIBLE"
