We will present a petition with 30,000 signatures calling for an immediate end to all “euthanasia” of cats in North Ridgeville at tonight’s city council meeting.
The petition to Mayor G. David Gillock calls for an immediate order halting the “euthanasia” of animals by Humane Officers in the city. It also calls on the mayor to meet with us to discuss more humane measures for cats, including community-supported humane alternatives, like Trap-Neuter-Return for feral cats.
We’ll also be addressing the peaceful protestors at tonight’s meeting. On Friday, we sent a letter to North Ridgeville Mayor G. David Gillock asking him to issue an order ending the killing of all cats by animal control officers after a human officer shot and killed five kittens in a resident’s back yard.
The people have spoken. It’s clear North Ridgeville needs a new protocol for its humane officers. Alley Cat Allies is offering guidance and help.
