“We adopted out two dogs, five kittens and a guinea pig today, a great start. Still, LOTS of animals need a home,” said Director of Development & Marketing Jenny Miller after the event’s first day.
“Kennels are full, with multiple dogs sharing a space intended for a single dog. With the heat of the summer and less opportunity for the dogs to be walked due to COVID-related volunteer restrictions, Maui Humane Society is expressing an urgent need for these animals to be adopted.”
“It’s kind of an equity issue honestly,” Kendrick said. “There are a lot of situations particularly for renters where that’s the only choice they have is to tether their animals when they are not around. Either their landlord won’t let them keep their animal inside, the yard isn’t fenced, they can’t afford to fence it it’s not their property anyway.”
