Philadelphia is the nation's fifth largest city, with three animal shelters: Morris Animal Refuge, PSPCA and Philadelphia Animal Care and Control. In 2003, nearly 45,000 animals were surrendered to Philadelphia shelters: 14,000 animals were adopted and 28,000 euthanized.
An estimated 5 million homeless cats and dogs are killed each year in U.S. shelters, but cities like New York City have found successful solutions to the problem of pet overpopulation through collaborative efforts of the city, animal control and local animal welfare groups. Around the U.S., animal shelters that also perform animal control services have committed to the no-kill philosophy.
These successes have served to attract millions of dollars in private sector funding. Thousands of conventional and unconventional funding opportunities exist for new and innovative community spay-neuter and adoption programs which have vastly improved animal welfare in other cities.
The Alliance for Philadelphia's Animals is an organization formed with the goal of guiding a coalition of animal welfare organizations to support homeless animals through:
Supporting efforts of rescue groups, shelters and animal control to reduce deaths of shelter animals in Philadelphia through innovative adoption programs.
Increasing spay/neuter surgeries of pets by involving private practice veterinarians.
Private funding for community collaborations designed to reduce and eventually eliminate the killing of cats and dogs in shelters by increasing spay-neuter surgeries and adoptions of healthy cats and dogs.
