Some NO kill rescue charities try to rescue them by paying for the animals adoption fees out of their own pocket. Guardian Angels for Animal Rescues do this type of rescues for example. Sometimes, on Care2 there is a panic financial request to help donate to pay for animals to be adopted from the killing list on the last hour of the animals life.
The request for butterfly exchange options is to help pay for any animal's rescue costs.
The last few occasions were many cats in Livingston County Animal Control, were about to be euthanized. (Slaughtered, murdered, killed, destroyed, put to sleep, put down.)
After a huge struggle from many people trying to rescue these cats and a dog at another high kill shelter, the animals were eventually rescued by Guardian Angels. But thousands upon thousands are not so lucky to be rescued. I know we can not save the world, but if we save one life, we have helped give the world back to that life.
The monies were collected by the public, Care2 member donations, and Guardian Angels for Animal rescues. With these donations, NO KILL rescue organisations managed to rescue the cats from being euthanized.
Thank you so much for your kind attention, compassion and time in signing this petition. You know, you may not see the good you had done, it is good enough to know that you have tried and contributed to help saving lives.
Thank you for request from Care2 for new Butterfly Credit exchange options, from Care2 to donate to No Kill Rescue type of organisations to help pay for the animals rescues from being killed, by paying for their adoption fees from the Euthanasia (death) List.
HOW BEAUTIFUL SOULS ARE SO FLEETING AND THEY FAILED TO NOTICE.
THE WAY PEOPLE TREAT ANIMALS IS OFTEN THE WAY THEY TREAT ANIMALS AND MOTHER EARTH. CRUELTY BEGINS IN THE MINDSET. LIFE IS LIKE A JOURNEY, SO TRAVEL IT WELL.

News story and new video.
As a dog in war-torn Afghanistan, Target survived an explosion set off by a suicide bomber he had fought off, potentially saving dozens of soldiers lives. But Target could not survive his time in the care of Pinal Countys Animal Control division.
Target, brought to the San Tan Valley area southeast of Phoenix by a soldier who befriended him in Afghanistan, was accidentally euthanized Monday morning.
Previously: 4-legged Afghanistan hero
Her owner, Sgt. Terry Young, found this out after he showed up at the shelter to claim Target, who had slipped out of his back yard over the weekend. I just cant believe that something like this would happen to such a good dog, Young said.
Pinal County is investigating what it says appears to be a mistake at its Casa Grande shelter.
When it comes to euthanizing an animal, there are some clear-cut procedures to follow, Ruth Stalter, the county animal control director, said in a statement. Based on my preliminary investigation, our employee did not follow those procedures.
A county spokesman said the employee is on paid administrative leave during the investigation into what happened with this dog, which forged a strong friendship with his owner after possibly saving his life.
Young brought Target back to Arizona after the dog, along with two others, frightened a suicide bomber who was trying to detonate himself inside a military base. Target snapped and barked at the bomber. Rather than making it into a building where soldiers were phoning home or exercising, the bomber set off his bomb in a doorway.
Five soldiers were injured, but they and others credited Target and the other dogs with saving their lives. Young figured he would have been fatally injured by shrapnel had Target not intervened.
Young said Target was treated like royalty the rest of his time at the base at Dand Patan, near the Pakistan border.
Young brought Target to his San Tan Valley home in August. The dog%u2019s story was featured in The Republic and on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
On Friday morning, the day after Veterans Day, Young put some breakfast in Targets bowl.
Seriously, it doesnt matter where she was in the house or outside, as soon as she heard me messing with the package, she would come running, he said.
But there was no Target.
Young went to his back yard and found a gate wide open. He put out online notices and contacted TV stations that did reports on the missing hero dog.
Heather Murphy, a spokeswoman for Pinal County, said a neighbor found Target wandering stray on Friday, put her in his back yard and called the pound. The dog did not have a microchip or tag, Murphy said.
On Friday night, Young found Targets picture on a website used by Pinal Countys dog catchers to help owners track lost pets. It was about 6 p.m. and Young figured the shelter was closed for that night and for the weekend.
He was half right. The shelters hours on Saturday are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Still, Young rested easy. Shes in the pound. At least shes safe, he said.
He showed up at the pound Monday and filled out some forms. Then, he said, a staffer brought out another dog. Young told him that wasnt his dog and showed a picture of Target, who wore a distinctive pink camouflage collar.
An hour passed. Then, Young saw one worker come out from the back sobbing. And the director of the shelter told him there had been a mistake.
Young said his wife and three children, ages 14, 7, and 4, want to see Targets body. He decided to pass, not wanting to remember her that way, he said.
The family will get Targets cremated remains.
The 4-year-old is really taking it hard right now, Young said. Shes saying we need to get the poison out of her so she can come home. She cant grasp the idea that shes gone.
