No-Kill or Slow-kill

I adopted a cat from pet rescue over ten years ago. What an awful place it was! I wanted to take every animal out of there. My cat was sick when I got her, with an upper respiratory infection and huge fleas. She was sickly the entire time I owned her, but had a good life. She finally came down with renal disease and died of pneumonia at the age of 11 (I had her about 10 years.)

There were so many sick animals in that place when I was there. I heard it was a no-kill facility, which is why I went there. I hated every second I was there. There was a cat with a huge seeping wound, another cat that had recently had its leg amputated and an ugly welt. Cages of cats stacked in this room. And the owner said there was another room with over two hundred more cats in it. I couldn't go in there. I talked to my vet about the place and told everyone I knew that it needed to be shut down. I totally support you in your efforts to close this place down. If there is anything I can do, let me know.
