With the hope of stemming the overcrowding in Los Angeles animal shelters, two city council members have called for an"immediate and indefinite moratorium" on new breeders.
"It is unacceptable for the City to continue issuing breeding permits while thousands of animals are suffering from overcrowded conditions in our animal shelters," Hernandez said in a statement."While many factors have contributed to this crisis, halting the issuance of breeding permits is an immediate step the City can take to reduce the strain on the system."
The South Los Angeles Animal Services Center houses the most animals with 497 living in the facility. Crates filled with cats, dogs and other animals have overflowed into shelters' hallways, forcing caretakers at the city's six animal shelters to choose between providing substandard care to the pets or leaving them in neglectful or abusive homes, according to General Manager Staycee Dains.
