This is what my sister wrote for me. I am so upset at the moment that I can harldy function.
They violated the very laws they have posted on their web site to kill my poor babies.
I spoke to a police officer he suggests I sue them as they clearly broke the law.
I wish I could give them less than one star, they don't deserve the one star I have to give.
From my sister:
I am writing in regards to the Humane Society's mission and that of the Carroll County Humane Society in Westminster, MD. I don't understand how a organization that claims to support animals can disregard the life of animals and indiscriminately put healthy animals to death without even trying to place them up for adoption or for fostering.
This past weekend while my sister was on vacation with me, her husband without her knowledge loaded up their pet cats and kittens and took them to the Humane Society in Westminster. Without any proof of ownership the shelter in Westminster accepted the adult cats and kittens. My sister did not find out until late on Saturday over the Thanksgiving weekend what her husband had done. She immediately called her daughter who lives in town to try and get in touch with the shelter to explain the situation and the fact they wanted they cats and kittens back. However the shelter closed at 12 on Saturday and wasn't open on Sunday. When my sister got home she again tried to contact the shelter but was told that all the animals including the kittens had been immediately euthenized. None of the animals were saved for possible adoption and yes they were sorry but there wasn't anything to do.
But there is something we can do. We can let those in our family and our friends know that this organization that claims to support animals is really just a place to take them to die or be killed. At this point we feel it is in the best interest of animals that the public and the people who donate to the local shelter know what really happens there. If we can prevent others from having a false impresson that the society is helping animals and not just killing them - then maybe we can save a few animal lives.
Sincerely in favor of the animals,
Pros: None they should rot in hell
Cons: See above they should rot in hell
