Format: Cat loversβ¦ the Apple Valley Animal Shelter, probably one of the worst shelters in the entire U.S. with a save rate of 7% (in 2023 for cats) has further eroded peopleβs ability to try and save cats (and dogs). The shelter now restricted access to Kennel cards. The shelter refuses to give out a pending euthanasia list. The kennel cards were the only way to give a short window of time to try and save an animal.
Can you send an email protesting this? here is a draft email regarding the kennel card public access revocation.

To Whom It May Concern:
It has come to my attention that on the evening of September 19, 2024, public kennel card access on the Town of Apple Valley Animal Services βAdoptable Animalsβ website was deactivated. I respectfully request that public kennel card access be immediately restored.
- Public kennel card access was revoked so AVAS can conceal euthanasia
I appreciate your prompt attention to this serious matter.
Sincerely,
[Your name]
