Animal care, control and welfare is a
major concern in our community. Stray cats and dogs affect
us all. They roam our community in search of food,
shelter and affection. They get in our trash and treat our
yards as a restroom, thus spreading disease. By running at large,
stray animals also pose the threat of dog and cat bites. There
is an estimated 2 stray dogs for every person in the County.
That's an estimated
120,000 stray dogs. The numbers for stray cats are even
higher than that.
The Knox-Whitley Animal Shelter is a private non-profit organization and
our efforts can only do so much. We need help and so do you. The problem is just too large. Our community needs full
time animal control, as well as more strict and properly
enforced animal law. If you would like to make a change
please contact the Whitley County Courthouse by calling
606-549-6000 and voice your opinion.
