Charlie deserved a shelter with an adoption program and a foster program

Charlie had a horrific stay at the Long Beach Animal Care Services shelter and was killed because of a "behavioral" issue that LBACS itself caused. These facts come directly from LBACS' shelter records.

This should not be happening in a city as animal-friendly as Long Beach. We know there is NO way the good people of Long Beach would ever want animals to suffer at our animal shelter the way Charlie did.

The auditor knows about cases like Charlie - this slide is part of the PowerPoint presentation we gave to the (non-No Kill) shelter consultants the City hired.

Long Beach needs a strong adoption program at LBACS. It's not rocket science. 

It's just the right thing to do.
