FORM 990 PART III LINE 4A	AT THE HEART OF BEST FRIENDS ANIMAL SOCIETY'S WORK LIES BEST FRIENDS ANIMAL SANCTUARY - THE COUNTRY'S LARGEST NO-KILL SANCTUARY FOR COMPANION ANIMALS, NESTLED IN THE MAJESTIC RED ROCK CANYONS OF SOUTHERN UTAH. FOUNDED IN 1984, THE SANCTUARY WAS CREATED ON ONE SIMPLE BELIEF: THAT EVERY PET HAS A LIFE WORTH SAVING. SINCE THEN, THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF ANIMALS HAVE FOUND REFUGE HERE AND RECEIVED LOVE AND OUTSTANDING CARE AS THEY SEARCH FOR GOOD HOMES. ON ANY GIVEN DAY, SOME 1,600 DOGS, CATS, BUNNIES, BIRDS, HORSES AND OTHER BARNYARD ANIMALS CALL THE SANCTUARY THEIR HOME BETWEEN HOMES, WITH EACH ANIMAL RECEIVING ALL THE AFFECTION AND CARE NEEDED TO HEAL, BOTH PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. BEST FRIENDS IS COMMITTED TO FINDING LOVING HOMES FOR AS MANY ANIMALS AT THE SANCTUARY AS POSSIBLE. BUT EVEN IF THAT RIGHT HOME NEVER COMES ALONG, THE ANIMALS ARE WELCOME TO CALL THE SANCTUARY HOME FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES. AT THE SANCTUARY IN FISCAL YEAR 2016: 1,311 ANIMALS WERE WELCOMED. 1,108 ANIMALS FOUND LOVING FOREVER HOMES, WITH 35 PERCENT OF THEM HAVING SPECIAL NEEDS. WILD FRIENDS, BEST FRIENDS' UNIQUE STATE AND FEDERALLY LICENSED WILDLIFE REHABILITATION AND EDUCATION CENTER, SUCCESSFULLY REHABILITATED 189 INJURED WILD ANIMALS AND AFTER THEIR FULL RECOVERY RELEASED THEM BACK TO THEIR NATURAL HABITATS. FOR THOSE ANIMALS TOO INJURED OR TOO ACCLIMATED TO PEOPLE TO RETURN TO THE WILD, THEY RECEIVE A LIFETIME OF CARE AND BECOME TREASURED TEACHERS BY EDUCATING VISITORS AND VOLUNTEERS ABOUT WILDLIFE AND CONSERVATION ISSUES. NEARLY 32,000 PEOPLE VISITED, AND NEARLY 9,800 PEOPLE VOLUNTEERED TO HELP THE ANIMALS. ANIMAL CARE FACILITIES WERE RENOVATED TO MAKE BEST FRIENDS' CARE EVEN BETTER: WE CONTINUED TO UPGRADE AND REPLACE ALL OF THE FENCING IN THE OLD FRIENDS AREA OF DOGTOWN TO KEEP THE DOGS SAFE AND SOUND. PLUS, WE REMODELED ONE OF THE DOGTOWN BUILDINGS TO KEEP THE DOGS COMFORTABLE. AT CAT WORLD, WE ADDED NEW A NEW LAUNDRY ROOM AND KITCHEN TO THE KITTEN AREA TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR VOLUNTEERS AND STAFF MEMBERS TO PROVIDE TLC TO THE KITTENS. THE NEW DOG ADMISSIONS FACILITY OPENED IN OCTOBER 2015. THE BUILDING FEATURES MORE NATURAL LIGHT, EXTRA SPACE, EASY ACCESS TO THE OUTDOORS AND ENSURES THAT ALL DOGS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR SPECIAL NEEDS, EXPERIENCE A STRESS-FREE TRANSITION TO LIVING AT BEST FRIENDS. A TOTAL OF 349 DOGS HAVE BEEN ADMITTED THROUGH THE FACILITY SINCE IT OPENED. BEST FRIENDS ANIMAL CLINIC HAD ANOTHER BUSY YEAR: SPAY/NEUTER PROCEDURES - 3,897 (3,284 PUBLIC) DENTALS - 320 (74 PUBLIC) OTHER MISCELLANEOUS SURGERIES - 432 (199 PUBLIC) AFTER-HOURS EMERGENCIES - 122 (60 PUBLIC)
FORM 990 PART III LINE 4B	WHEN BEST FRIENDS WAS FIRST FOUNDED, AN ESTIMATED 17 MILLION DOGS AND CATS WERE BEING KILLED IN AMERICA'S SHELTERS EVERY YEAR, SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE SAFE PLACES TO CALL HOME. TOGETHER WITH OUR MEMBERS, PARTNERS AND CARING PEOPLE AROUND THE COUNTRY, WE HAVE REDUCED THAT NUMBER TO ABOUT TWO MILLION PER YEAR. THAT'S TREMENDOUS PROGRESS, BUT WE WON'T STOP UNTIL WE SAVE THEM ALL. THROUGH LIFESAVING PROGRAMS, SPECIAL EVENTS, TARGETED INITIATIVES, LEGISLATIVE EFFORTS AND A NETWORK OF VALUABLE PARTNERSHIPS WITH ANIMAL WELFARE ORGANIZATIONS (MORE THAN 1,800 AND COUNTING), BEST FRIENDS IS WORKING TO END THE KILLING OF DOGS AND CATS IN SHELTERS FOR GOOD. IN FACT, WE'VE EVEN PUT A DATE ON IT. IN 2016, BEST FRIENDS PUT A STAKE IN THE GROUND AND ANNOUNCED A BOLD NEW GOAL TO END THE KILLING OF DOGS AND CATS IN SHELTERS AND MAKE THE COUNTRY COMPLETELY NO-KILL BY 2025. IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, BEST FRIENDS: DIRECTLY HELPED 187,693 PETS THROUGH OUR SANCTUARY, REGIONAL CENTERS, INITIATIVES AND NATIONAL PROGRAMS PERFORMED 97,296 SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES AT OUR CLINICS AND THROUGH OUR PROGRAMS FOUND HOMES FOR 84,673 ANIMALS THROUGH OUR ADOPTION CENTERS, EVENTS AND PROMOTIONS PROVIDED SECOND CHANCES TO 4,045 NEWBORN KITTENS AT OUR KITTEN NURSERIES. OTHER FISCAL YEAR 2016 HIGHLIGHTS NETWORK PARTNERS AND OTHER NATIONAL OUTREACH: BEST FRIENDS SUPER ADOPTION EVENTS ARE STILL THE LARGEST ADOPTION EVENTS IN THE COUNTRY. TAKING PLACE TWICE A YEAR IN NEW YORK CITY, LOS ANGELES AND SALT LAKE CITY, THEY BRING TOGETHER RESCUE GROUPS, SHELTERS AND THOUSANDS OF ADOPTERS TO FIND HOMES FOR AS MANY PETS AS POSSIBLE. IN 2016, 2,652 PETS FOUND HOMES AT SUPER ADOPTION EVENTS. STRUT YOUR MUTT, A NATIONAL FUNDRAISER THAT HELPS RAISE MONEY FOR HUNDREDS OF ANIMAL WELFARE GROUPS (AND THE ANIMALS), NOW TAKES PLACE IN 14 CITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY, PLUS THERE IS A VIRTUAL EVENT FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIVE NEAR EVENT CITIES. IN 2016, STRUT YOUR MUTT RAISED A TOTAL OF $2.6 MILLION, WITH NEARLY $1.9 MILLION GOING DIRECTLY TO 294 PARTICIPATING BEST FRIENDS NETWORK PARTNERS. BEST FRIENDS HOLDS ADOPTION EVENTS ALL YEAR LONG TO HELP MORE PETS FIND HOMES. BUT IN 2015 WITH $1.1 MILLION IN FUNDING PROVIDED BY ZAPPOS, BEST FRIENDS' "HAPPY PAWLIDAYZ" PROMOTION HELPED 6,254 DOGS AND CATS FIND NEW HOMES IN JUST ONE WEEKEND. BEST FRIENDS' NO MORE HOMELESS PETS NETWORK IS A GROUP OF ANIMAL WELFARE ORGANIZATIONS COMMITTED TO SAVING THE LIVES OF HOMELESS PETS THROUGH EFFECTIVE ADOPTION AND SPAY/NEUTER PROGRAMS. THE NETWORK HAS MORE THAN 1,800 (AND COUNTING) PARTNERS IN ALL 50 STATES. IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, BEST FRIENDS PRESENTED NETWORK PARTNERS WITH MORE THAN $3.8 MILLION IN GRANTS THAT MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR THEM TO SAVE EVEN MORE HOMELESS PETS. NETWORK PARTNERS PARTICIPATING IN ADOPTION PROMOTIONS HELPED FIND HOMES FOR NEARLY 41,500 PETS. BEST FRIENDS PRESENTED THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF TAMPA BAY WITH A $25,000 GRANT TO HELP FIND HOMES FOR SENIOR CATS (SOME OF THE MOST AT-RISK PETS IN SHELTERS). AS A RESULT, ADOPTION RATES FOR SENIOR CATS ROSE 37 PERCENT, MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO ACCEPT 122 MORE CATS FROM THE LOCAL COUNTY SHELTER. ALSO, IN LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY, BEST FRIENDS AWARDED A $50,000 GRANT TO ALLEY CAT ADVOCATES TO FUND SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES FOR MORE THAN 1,000 COMMUNITY CATS. LARGE BREED DOGS OFTEN HAVE A HARDER TIME FINDING HOMES, SO WITH GENEROUS GRANTS FROM THE SAN ANTONIO AREA FOUNDATION AND RACHEL'S RESCUE, BEST FRIENDS PARTNERED WITH SAN ANTONIO ANIMAL CARE SERVICES (SAACS) TO LAUNCH THE BIG DOG PROJECT. SO FAR THE PROJECT HAS BEEN A HUGE SUCCESS. SAACS HIRED A NEW DOG TRAINER WHO HELPED 726 BIG DOGS. AND WITH THE PROGRAM'S HELP, 826 DOGS FOUND LOVING NEW HOMES IN FISCAL YEAR 2016. AT THE 2016 BEST FRIENDS NATIONAL CONFERENCE HELD IN SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, MORE THAN 1,300 PARTICIPANTS, INCLUDING 447 INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING 187 NETWORK PARTNER GROUPS, HEARD INNOVATIVE IDEAS AND FOUND INSPIRATION TO HELP SAVE THEM ALL IN THEIR OWN COMMUNITIES. THE CONFERENCE FEATURED THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF OUR BOLD NEW GOAL TO END THE KILLING IN AMERICA'S SHELTERS AND MAKE THE ENTIRE COUNTRY NO-KILL BY 2025. PLANS WERE SET IN MOTION TO HELP ACHIEVE THAT GOAL. BEST FRIENDS CELEBRITY AMBASSADORS ARE CRITICAL TO SPREADING THE WORD ABOUT HOMELESS PETS AND RELEVANT ANIMAL WELFARE ISSUES. WE WERE HAPPY TO HAVE ACTOR CHRISTOPHER WALKEN SERVE AS SPOKESPERSON FOR OUR "I SAVED MY BEST FRIEND" CAMPAIGN. WALKEN APPEARED ON NBC'S TODAY PROGRAM TO SHOW HIS SUPPORT FOR BEST FRIENDS. THE MANY CELEBRITY AMBASSADORS PARTICIPATING IN BEST FRIENDS PUBLIC OUTREACH PROGRAMS HAVE HELPED GROW THE ORGANIZATION'S SOCIAL MEDIA AUDIENCE TO MORE THAN 2.2 MILLION. PROGRAM CITIES: UTAH THE NO-KILL UTAH (NKUT) INITIATIVE, A BEST FRIENDS LED COALITION, WHICH BRINGS TOGETHER MUNICIPAL SHELTERS, ANIMAL WELFARE ORGANIZATIONS AND DEDICATED INDIVIDUALS TO END THE KILLING OF PETS IN UTAH'S SHELTERS BY 2019, IS GAINING MORE MOMENTUM THAN EVER. FOR THE THIRD YEAR IN A ROW, UTAH IS NO-KILL FOR DOGS AND NEARLY NO-KILL FOR CATS. THE STATE'S OVERALL SAVE RATE FOR CATS AND DOGS IN FISCAL YEAR 2016 WAS 85 PERCENT. WITH A 90 PERCENT OR HIGHER SAVE RATE IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, A TOTAL OF 33 UTAH SHELTERS WERE CONSIDERED NO-KILL. AT THE BEST FRIENDS PET ADOPTION CENTER IN SALT LAKE CITY, WHICH FEATURES ADOPTABLE PETS FROM OUR SHELTER PARTNER, A TOTAL OF 1,912 LUCKY DOGS AND CATS FOUND LOVING HOMES. AND AT THE BEST FRIENDS KITTEN NURSERY IN SALT LAKE CITY, THE NUMBER OF KITTENS GIVEN A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE TOTALED 1,220. THE BEST FRIENDS SPAY/NEUTER CLINICS IN OREM AND OGDEN, JUST OUTSIDE OF SALT LAKE CITY, SPAYED OR NEUTERED 11,420 PETS, ENSURING THAT COUNTLESS PETS WOULD NOT BE ENTERING SHELTERS IN THE FUTURE. LOS ANGELES THE NO-KILL LOS ANGELES (NKLA) INITIATIVE, A BEST FRIENDS LED COALITION, WHICH BRINGS TOGETHER CITY SHELTERS, ANIMAL WELFARE GROUPS AND THOUSANDS OF INDIVIDUALS TO MAKE L.A. NO-KILL BY THE END OF 2017, IS SAVING MORE LIVES THAN EVER. IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, THE SAVE RATE FOR DOGS AND CATS IN L.A. CITY SHELTERS WAS 81.5 PERCENT - UP FROM 75.8 THE YEAR BEFORE. SINCE THE INITIATIVE LAUNCHED IN 2012, THE NUMBER OF DOGS AND CAT KILLED IN SHELTERS HAS DECREASED BY 79.2 PERCENT. WE ARE WELL ON OUR WAY TO ACHIEVING OUR NO-KILL GOAL. THE NKLA PET ADOPTION CENTER - L.A.'S CHICEST ADOPTION CENTER THAT SHOWCASES PETS FROM OUR NKLA COALITION PARTNERS AND FROM BEST FRIENDS - FOUND HOMES FOR NEARLY 2,700 DOGS AND CATS. THE BEST FRIENDS PET ADOPTION AND SPAY/NEUTER CENTER IN LOS ANGELES PULLED 5,330 PETS FROM L.A. ANIMAL SERVICE FACILITIES, FOUND HOMES FOR MORE THAN 3,600 OF THEM, AND PERFORMED 6,500 SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES. NEWBORN KITTENS TRAGICALLY ARE THE PETS MOST AT RISK PETS OF BEING KILLED LOS ANGELES CITY SHELTERS. THAT'S WHY OUR KITTEN NURSERY IN L.A. IS CRUCIAL FOR MAKING THE CITY NO-KILL. IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, THE NURSERY PROVIDED LIFESAVING SECOND CHANCES FOR 2,665 FRAGILE KITTENS. NEW YORK FOR YEARS, BEST FRIENDS HAS BEEN WORKING IN NEW YORK CITY TO SAVE THE LIVES OF HOMELESS PETS. THROUGH ADOPTION AND FUNDRAISING EVENTS, AS WELL AS A LIFESAVING FOSTER PROGRAM, BEST FRIENDS DIRECTLY HELPED NEARLY 1,200 DOGS AND CATS IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, AND PULLED FROM THE CITY'S SHELTERS 514 PETS IN DANGER OF BEING KILLED. IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, BEST FRIENDS, WORKING TOGETHER WITH OTHER PASSIONATE ANIMAL WELFARE GROUPS, SHELTERS AND INDIVIDUALS HELPED NEW YORK CITY REACH NO-KILL FOR DOGS WITH A 90.5 PERCENT SAVE RATE. THE OVERALL SAVE RATE FOR DOGS AND CATS WAS 86.3 PERCENT, BRINGING THE CITY VERY CLOSE TO NO-KILL. ALSO IN NEW YORK CITY, BEST FRIENDS BEGAN CONSTRUCTION ON THE NEW BEST FRIENDS PET ADOPTION CENTER. LOCATED IN SOHO, THE CENTER WAS CONSTRUCTED TO BE ANOTHER LIFESAVING OUTLET FOR THE CITY'S DOGS AND CATS. HOMELESS PETS FROM ANIMAL CARE CENTERS OF NYC AND OUR OTHER LOCAL ANIMAL WELFARE PARTNERS ARE FEATURED FOR ADOPTION AT THE CENTER. PIT BULL INITIATIVES: TRAGICALLY, IN SOME AREAS OF THE COUNTRY, VICTIMS OF ILLEGAL DOGFIGHTING RINGS ARE NOT GIVEN A CHANCE AT ADOPTION, EVEN WHEN THEY HAVE NOT BEEN INDIVIDUALLY EVALUATED. BUT WITH HELP FROM THE LEGISLATIVE EFFORTS OF BEST FRIENDS, THAT'S CHANGING. IN CALIFORNIA, GOV. JERRY BROWN SIGNED A BEST FRIENDS-SPONSORED BILL THAT GIVES DOGS SEIZED IN DOGFIGHTING CASES A CHANCE AT FINDING FOREVER HOMES. AND IN WISCONSIN, AB 487/SB 450 WAS SIGNED INTO LAW, GIVING VICTIMS OF DOGFIGHTING CASES THE SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE THEY DESERVE. PRIOR TO THAT BILL, WISCONSIN WAS ONE OF 12 STATES STILL ORDERING THAT RESCUED DOGFIGHTING VICTIMS BE AUTOMATICALLY KILLED.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B	OUR ADVOCACY EFFORTS ARE CRUCIAL FOR HELPING KEEP DOGS SAFE AT HOME WITH THEIR FAMILIES, BUT SO IS EDUCATION. THAT'S WHY BEST FRIENDS WORKS TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT PIT-BULL-TERRIER-LIKE DOGS IN AN EFFORT TO BREAK THE NEGATIVE STIGMA AROUND THEM. THE VICKTORY DOGS (THE 22 DOGS RESCUED FROM THE PROPERTY OF NFL QUARTERBACK MICHAEL VICK AND BROUGHT TO THE SANCTUARY FOR LOVE AND TRAINING), HAVE EDUCATED THE PUBLIC AND SHOWN THEM THAT EVERY DOG, REGARDLESS OF PAST HISTORY OR BREED, CAN BE A WONDERFUL, LOVING PET. AND LAST YEAR, A DOCUMENTARY FILM CALLED THE CHAMPIONS WAS RELEASED. IT TELLS THE STORY OF SOME OF THOSE VICKTORY DOGS, AS WELL AS THE STORY OF BEST FRIENDS AND OTHER GROUPS WHO RESCUED THEM. THE FILM, WITH 145 SCREENINGS IN 41 STATES, PLUS AVAILABILITY FOR STREAMING ON NETFLIX, DID A GREAT DEAL TO RAISE PUBLIC AWARENESS OF BREED DISCRIMINATION. BEST FRIENDS' LEGISLATIVE TEAM CELEBRATED 22 WINS FOR PIT-BULL-TERRIER-LIKE DOGS (15 CITY, SIX STATE, AND ONE FEDERAL). A TOTAL OF 20 (AND COUNTING) STATES HAVE ADOPTED PROVISIONS AGAINST BREED DISCRIMINATION LEGISLATION. MORE THAN 37,200 EMAILS RELATED TO OUR PIT BULL INITIATIVES WERE SENT IN BY CARING PEOPLE THROUGH OUR LEGISLATIVE ACTION CENTER. AND SINCE BEST FRIENDS' PIT BULL INITIATIVE EFFORTS BEGAN IN 2009, WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO POSITIVELY IMPACT MORE THAN 1.9 MILLION PIT-BULL-TERRIER-LIKE DOGS. PUPPY MILL INITIATIVES: BEST FRIENDS CONTINUES ITS WORK TO PUT AN END TO PUPPY MILLS BY FOCUSING ON THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM: RETAIL STORES SELLING MILL-BRED PETS. OUR WORK INCLUDES SPEARHEADING ORDINANCES AND ENCOURAGING PET STORES TO OFFER ANIMALS FOR ADOPTION, RATHER THAN SELL MILL-BRED PETS. WE ALSO WORK TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT THE DEPLORABLE LIVING CONDITIONS F MILL-BRED PETS, AND URGE PEOPLE TO ADOPT (INSTEAD OF BUY) THEIR NEW BEST FRIENDS. AS A RESULT OF THESE EFFORTS, 102 NEW COMMUNITIES HAVE BANNED THE SALE OF MILL-BRED PETS IN RETAIL STORES, BRINGING THE TOTAL NUMBER OF COMMUNITIES IN THE U.S. AND CANADA BANNING SUCH SALES TO 191. OUR PUPPY MILL INITIATIVE LEGISLATIVE EFFORTS RESULTED IN 86 WINS (82 ORDINANCES, THREE STATE BILLS AND ONE POLICY CHANGE). ALONG WITH A TEAM OF PASSIONATE LOCAL ADVOCATES IN NEW JERSEY, BEST FRIENDS HELPED ENACT 51 RETAIL PET STORE ORDINANCES. AND IN SARASOTA COUNTY, FLORIDA, BEST FRIENDS HELPED ENACT A MAJOR ORDINANCE THAT BANS THE SALE OF DOGS AND CATS IN PET STORES, UNLESS THEY COME FROM SHELTERS OR RESCUE GROUPS. NEARLY 19,500 EMAILS FROM CONCERNED CONSTITUENTS WERE SENT THROUGH BEST FRIENDS' LEGISLATIVE ACTION CENTER, URGING LEGISLATORS TO REGULATE COMMERCIAL BREEDING AND SHOWING THEM THAT THE CONTINUING PROBLEM OF INHUMANE TREATMENT OF DOGS IN PUPPY MILLS IS SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE DEEPLY CARE ABOUT. CAT INITIATIVES: BEST FRIENDS RUNS LIFESAVING COMMUNITY CAT PROGRAMS IN MULTIPLE CITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THE PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO SAVE THE LIVES OF COMMUNITY (STRAY, FREE-ROAMING) CATS THROUGH TRAP-NEUTER-RETURN (TNR). TNR PROGRAMS TRAP, SPAY OR NEUTER AND VACCINATE COMMUNITY CATS AND THEN RETURN THEM TO THEIR OUTDOOR HOMES. OUR TNR PROGRAMS ARE CRUCIAL FOR SAVING LIVES BECAUSE CATS (ESPECIALLY COMMUNITY CATS) ARE AMONG THE MOST AT-RISK PETS IN SHELTERS. COMMUNITY CAT PROGRAMS ARE ACTIVE IN LAS VEGAS, NEVADA; LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA; ATLANTA, GEORGIA; AND IN THE ENTIRE STATE OF UTAH. WE ALSO RUN COMMUNITY CAT PROGRAMS IN COLLABORATION WITH PETSMART CHARITIES IN PIMA COUNTY, ARIZONA; PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA; BALTIMORE, MARYLAND; AND COLUMBUS, GEORGIA. THIS PAST AUGUST, OUR COMMUNITY CATS PROJECT IN BALTIMORE, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PETSMART CHARITIES, WRAPPED UP ITS FINAL YEAR OF PROGRAMMING AND ENTERED A NEW PHASE: SUSTAINABILITY. BALTIMORE ANIMAL RESCUE AND CARE SHELTER (BARCS) IS NOW SAVING AT LEAST 90 PERCENT OF THE CATS ENTERING THE SHELTER. BEST FRIENDS CELEBRATED 21 LEGISLATIVE WINS FOR COMMUNITY CATS (12 CITY, THREE COUNTY, AND SIX STATE). THAT MEANS FEWER CATS WILL ENTER SHELTERS IN THE FUTURE AND COUNTLESS LIVES WILL BE SAVED. MORE THAN 42,000 COMMUNITY CATS WERE HELPED BY BEST FRIENDS COMMUNITY CAT PROGRAMS AND CONTINUED PARTNERSHIPS WITH HUMANE, EFFECTIVE TNR PROGRAMS ACROSS THE NATION. AND NEARLY 21,500 EMAILS WERE SENT THROUGH OUR LEGISLATIVE ACTION CENTER BY COMPASSIONATE INDIVIDUALS ON BEHALF OF THE LIVES OF COMMUNITY CATS.
