We frequently speak up and criticise our government for embarrassing us, yet do not feel embarrassed when we ourselves display a third world mindset towards innocent animals who we bred to be our companions and cannot speak up for themselves. And because of our laziness and unwillingness to be inconvenienced, 50,000 animals are going to die needlessly and probably painful deaths at the hands of unfeeling dog catchers.

In our quest to try to be a first world country, it starts with a change in mentality and a willingness to learn from others.

Countries like Germany and Holland have no-kill policies and yet have next to ZERO strays, proof that killing is not necessary to control stray populations. They implement policies requiring pets to be micro-chipped so they can trace owners who abandon their pets and fine them. In year 2011, when the German city of Bremen was overrun by cats, the government controlled it not by culling but by ordering ALL strays to be neutered.

It is so true what Alvin Toffler said decades ago, that “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.”
