To the editor: Thank you, mayor Karen Bass, for restoring $ 5 million to keep the animal shelters (“Mayor says that animal shelters do not close. The rescue groups are always on board, “ May 1). I also applaud the many residents who have come to hearings and demonstrations; Your advocacy has worked. However, our shelters remain outdated and too few Angelenos know where they can adopt or feed animals in need. Dogs and cats in good health and adoptable are always killed for spaces in facilities that should be lifestyles, not as a last resort.

To the publisher: Most citizens of Los Angeles are well aware and extremely concerned about the tax problems that are currently sadd in the city, and that these realities also have a negative impact on our animal shelters. However, we are also aware of the critical need to continue the high -level sterilization and sterilization services to curb the overcrowding of dogs and cats, a problem that requires the city to leave its six shelters open.
With euthanasia levels Up, Due to overcrowding and dismissals possibly on the horizon, these problems will simply go up. It is therefore in a way a relief to learn that Bass is aware of these conditions and has promised to award critical funds to shelters.
