Letter: County has two 'no-kill' shelters

Editor: Lots of blame is going around about who is responsible for the closing of our 50- year-old Humane Society. True, there is one less place for our homeless animals. However, in reality it's a blessing for our dogs and cats because this "shelter" was a kill facility and many wonderful animals lost their lives and the their chance of being rescued and finding a loving home.

We have two "no-kill" rescue groups in St. Johns County that are doing extraordinary work to rescue and find home for our dogs and cats. These are Bebe and Goliath's World and SAFE Pet Rescue Inc. Both contacted the Humane Society many times offering help and assistance. There is discussion of resurrecting the Humane Society. Count me in, but only if it is designated a "no-kill" shelter and includes the participation and guidance from the selfless and compassionate women who lead SAFE and Bebe and Goliath's World.
