We are making recommendations regarding the new manager and shelter. We are hoping to have a greater focus on the sheltering part of the position than in the past. We are also drafting interview questions for the candidates. We are hoping the City will hire someone who believes in the no kill philosophy. Earlier today I read the new Cat Fancy article "a No Kill Nation: Is It Possible?" and had my first exposure to Nathan Winograd. Tonight I was perusing your site and there he is again! I didn't realize or remember where you are located and, of course you would know him or of him. He is AMAZING. The links on your site took me to tons of valuable information for our effort. THANK-YOU for this and all you do for kitties!

Yes, but how much of that is due to the fact that they have been open to the public since the beginning?
