Towns should stand behind no-kill shelter

Why? Why would local towns take their support away from a wonderful no-kill shelter such as the Sayreville PetAdoption Center (SPAC) and instead give it to a kill shelter? Without this support, the Sayreville shelter will be forced to close, and no animal will stand a chance at life.

Towns such as Sayreville, South River, East Brunswick, Spotswood, etc., should give their support to SPAC. The animals at that shelter are treated with love, compassion and kindness, and isn’t this how all living beings should be treated? Somehow we seem to lose this human value as we grow older. As adults, many of us forget those less fortunate.

Hunting is another form of cruelty. Taking a handicapped parking space just because you have an old placard from a deceased relative but you yourself are not really handicapped is another form of cruelty.

Let’s stop and think about our other fellow beings, animals and humans, and give them the caring and compassion they deserve. It will make a better person of you.
